  Seeing the gene pool so inviting, David &/or Angie Lynn, I
  don't know which,  said;

>Pat, are you defining a meteor crashing into

>Earth as "forced migration"?

   Well, it was getting rather cold there and water was
   becoming scarce.  Can't blame the rock, or rather,
   little colony of creatures, for wanting to move to
   a trailer park or something.

   Who said they are dead? Shoot, they may be just real
   slow moving... You know, like Santilli getting around
   to sharing some real film reels with Bob Shell to sniff
   and pass on to Kodak.

    I think you have hit the nail on the head! Now, if NASA
    can get funding for an exploratory mission to Earth from
    Mars, once they get there, that theory might just be
    proven once & for all. Until then we can only guess.

>  If lightning can strike

   No, we could call that an Einsteinian thought experiment
   on simultaneousness and the ramifications in General Relativity.
   Now, if two meteors hit at the same instant, one on Mars
   and one on Earth, the ejected life forms in their rock
   spaceships could traverse to the other planets and
   set up housekeeping. You've got to note - The pyramids
   are made of rock. Heck, most all old things that are still
   around are made up of rock. What else would last so long?

>WRT sending animals to other planetary bodies
>within our solar system, I consider "lack of

   Well, that may well be, but then you have to consider
    Al Gore. If NASA could prove there are trees on Mars
    you'd see us getting there by the middle of `97. That's
    the way politics works. Heck, microbes turned him on
    and he got Bill excited enough to consider making Paula
    Jones ambassador on a women`d mission to Mars.

   Same reason as we'd send troops to Bosnia. Not that
   we would do it, but some among us would.

   Sounds familar. Have you been watching TV?

   Best description of LA I have ever heard.

   Good, I was running out of foolishness and was
   about to wax wise. Lucky you!
