	from Siegel<DMS%MIT-OZ@MIT-MC.ARPA>

	Who is to say that Venus is certainly a lifeless, inanimate
	object anyway?  In the early days of our planet's life it
	too may have seemed worthless.  If some other lifeform came
	along back then and attempted a major experiment on this 
	planet, we might not be around today.  Don't forget, nature
	has always seemed to be wiser than humans in the past!

Who's to say we "humans" aren't the result of some other lifeform's
"major experiment?"
