Hi,

 lurkftp working a while ago, but I can no longer get it to respond.

 I'm often asked the question, "Do you think there is extraterrestrial
 intelli- gence?"  I give the standard arguments -- there are a lot of
 places out there, and use the word *billions*, and so on.  And then I
 say it would be astonishing to me if there weren't extraterrestrial
 intelligence, but of course there is as yet no compelling evidence
 for it.  And then I'm asked, "Yeah, but what do you really think?"  I
 say, "I just told you what I really think."  "Yeah, but what's your
 gut feeling?"  But I try not to think with my gut.  Really, it's okay
 to reserve judgment until the evidence is in. Carl Sagan, The Burden
