Interesting listening.

I'll watch out for that, thanks

I like his style, he has a good sense of humour.

Was he the one who suggested removing it's planet status then?

Liking this bloke more and more after the above vid

His argument using the 1% DNA difference is certainly compelling (and fascinating).

Don't you find though, the idea that some extra-terrestrial life could consider us no more interesting than we would find a garden worm, even remotely disturbing?

A good vid in ways, but disturbing? Seeing how we have treated chimps and other lower intelligence species in the past makes the invasion of a superior alien race seem a bit grim.

The disturbing bit is not important, it was just an interesting vid, although I agree with him that it is.

Imagine another race who had as much power over us as we have over garden worms. We would be utterly helpless but also feel utterly inconsequential next to them. Our greatest achievements would pale into insignificance next to theirs.

Does grim not equate in any way to disturbing? At any rate your beach analogy certainly does!
