>The Miller/Uray experiment was a sham. He used a special trap to make it "work" and got very little result at best. The experiment yeld 80% tar about 17% carboylic Acid and about 3% amino acid (the wrong type). The many aminos acid bonded to the Tar and was destroyed and those that didn't couldn't survive out side the little trap he had contraped.
Huh? That is the first time I hear that this famous experiment is a sham. I very much doubt it. (However, please note that creating amino-acids is a far call from actually creating life.)
Also, I understand that amino-acids have been found in outer space, so we can assume that at least the basic building blocks of life (as we know it) are in fact quite common. Probably life is quite common, too, outside of the Earth.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
