Slamming SETI.
The Drake equation (and its fugly chirren!) can mean anything. Oh, like the variables that go into the AGW/warmist/cooling/change religion too?! Yeah, AGW is Drake/SETI on steroids to the power of infinity! Consensus is merely the peer pressure the illegitimate scientists employ to bully their skeptics, and yes skeptics are inherently REQUIRED to prove a scientific reality or debunk a scientific hoax!
Science has almost been completely made into the willing bitch of politicians and their agenda, without government funding of any kind perhaps science would get back to the realm of the real and leave fantasyland to the amateurs...until that dependence is obliterated we will continue to have trillions of taxpayers funds and future wealth and prosperity sacrificed on the altar of the insanity.
