I gotta go with yes, but not intelligent. I firmly believe there IS life out there. If we're here, the odds are SOMEthing else exists out there, I just don't know what yet.

Seen the recent news reports about another Earth-like solar system. Plenty of potential out there....

You've been peeking at my title, haven't you? :P

And I'll try. Honest!

Precisely!

Is there intelligent life on Earth?

And the answer to your other question is Y.

Pretty sure there's intelligent life somewhere else, just staggeringly unlikely to be anywhere in our immediate vicinity unless it's a hell of a lot more common than seems plausible.

Oh, and "snap!" to Southerndave

Good to see someone else spreading the word of the awesomeness that is Kitten Kong (and most of the rest of the Goodies' output, come to think of it...)

They've been here and they've gone. They won't return until Texas is declared the official village for idiots to reside instead of allowing them to preside.

Plus, too many examples in ancient cultures of advanced knowledge, "land art" beyond their ability to perceive and accounts among older cultures of similar meetings/existences that can't really be accounted for by parallel cultural evolution.

And, in closing... it'd be really cool. I would so love it if an alien armada showed up on Earth's doorstep, guns aimed and with the demand that their favorite Earth tv shows come back from cancellation. And hey, someone make sure they save a DVD with the answer to "Who Shot J.R.?" eh? I would, like, so totally renounce my, ya know, Earth citizenship and go with the totally awesome aliens. Unless they were trying to bring back "Viva Laughlin", in which case DEATH TO THE ALIENS!

My vote's still out. I'd certainly put my name to an option that said there's no reason why it couldn't...
