"There's a lot of, well, just plain wrong in this particular paragraph:
"For every Richard Dawkins, there are tons of scientists and science-zealots who will sort of mumble that studying the wonders of the universe has given them a new appreciation for the possibility that there could be some superior intelligence out there"

"@Git Em SteveDave: Er, how do you figure that California, whose southernmost point is probably more than 10,000km from any part of Antarctica, is close than Africa, whose southernmost point is perhaps 5,000km from the Antarctic coast?"
"@Zantor: "Plus, where was the window speaker?"
