In the May.June, 2006 issue of The Planetary Report:

The Chance and Necessity of Life: Reflections on AbSciCon 2006

In March, scientists representing different disciplines and different countries gathered together in Washington, DC to discuss the question of whether or not we are alone in the universe. Planetary Report Technical Editor Jim Burke attended the conference and shares his reflections here.

--------------------
"After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance.
I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard,
and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does
not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is
indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have
no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft."

- Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853
