Finding Extraterrestrial Life

For posterity I would like to note that as science can't truly comment on the existence of life on earth, but only on what is physically observable that we as people correlate with life, which I assure you is not life, I'm pretty sure that scientists will find no life on planets other than Earth. It would definitely be surprising if they did.

I suspect though that they will not use a reasonable definition of life, but a mechanistic one, which most sheepishly accept, and state that they have found life, first the signs of it, and then perhaps life itself, while at the same time implicitly denying it's existence. Such is life...

I had chicken wings last night. Half barbecue and half hot, with the normal fixin's: crushed red pepper, pickled jalapenos, and blue cheese with celery applicators. Also, there were some Fish n' Chips, though they were not proper chips but french fries. I used some malt vinegar on them (and ketchup).
