[net.space] The Anthropic Principle

lew (11/01/82)

The article "The Anthropic Principle" by George Gale in the December 1981
Scientific American (That's the beer bubble issue) seems relevant to
the extraterrestrial civilization discussion. It concerns itself with
the inductions one might make concerning the nature of the universe,
given our knowledge of life on earth. I vacillate between thinking the
article is hogwash and thinking it's stating the obvious.
