Life began in Canada !!!!

[Egaladeist]

The "eureka" moment--the idea that meteor impacts could benefit or even create conditions suitable for the beginning of early life--occurred when CSA geologist Gordon Osinski and his colleagues were surveying the rim of the crater and saw what looked like fossilized hydrothermal pipes. Hydrothermal systems are thought of by many as favorable places for life to evolve.

Coincidentally or not, life is believed to have emerged on Earth around 3.8 billion years ago, about the same time as the heaviest meteor bombardments on the planet. The impact craters of most of these blasts have long since eroded.

You know I was walking yesterday by the lake and saw what looked like a fossilized hydrothermal pipes ... humm and then I thought to myself God this must be it ... Then I took a big guess and was like hummm 3.999999.999 1/2 billion years sounds good ....

Hockey began in Canada, dunno about life.

Was Gretzkey a dinosaur?

I was not aware that the Tar pits extended beyond the wasteland.

I find the whole idea of defining life to a place that was not defined as a nation a bit presumtive.

Hmmm,

Looks like a "kick EG~ fest" here?

Hey EG~,

I have been giving this some thought and can scientifically disprove this theory.

BEAVERS! you see, they were just ordinary American water rodents until a Texan ran over their tails in his 4x4, and they fled to Canada...................so life must have originated south of the border?

[Egaladeist]

Hi nihil,

life must have originated south of the border ?

Hummmm????????? Thar's life south of the border ? Since When ?

Kind of spits in the face of early migrations of technology and man. But ok, Canada is the cradle of civilisation. It just wasn't discovered until 1492.

First ya'll claim to be the only country to burn down the white house (which is BS cause you didn't even exist as Canada back then) and now you claim the beginning of life. Damn, whats next, you invented the internet? LOL good one Egal!
