@Co_Biologists That's interesting. So that means that even I, an interested novice in this field could post something and 'win.' I'm not sure that I will but the way in which complex life has emerged on this planet by an apparently random sequence of events is truly remarkable. I wonder how likely it would be for life to form on planet similar to ours. It wouldn't surprise me if the nearest planet where this has happened is well outside our immediate stellar neighbourhood, but I'm not sure.
