Fermi Paradox[edit]
Hi, Brian! Your addition to "Fermi Paradox" seems reasonable. Do you have a reference for it? On this topic especially, since everyone has an opinion, it's hard to keep it encyclopedia-like (referring to already published work). I'll tag it in the article, and maybe you can fill in the reference. Thanks, LouScheffer (talk) 18:17, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
- Well, it's too bad that it took me three years to get around to looking at my talk page. Oh well. I don't remember the reference, unfortunately. I just looked at the page again, and I see fragments of things I've written still around (including most of one paragraph, about resource depletion), but not the argument about lack of interest, which I think is what you referred to. I added it back in, but as a throwaway reference this time. It probably qualifies as OR at this point, but I don't think it's unreasonable to have it in. --Brian Eisley (talk) 17:02, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
