If a Star Has Less Metals, it Might Have a Better Chance to Spark Life

I'm not clear why life in the oceans would be imperilled and the article seems to ignore the fact that free oxygen in the atmosphere, which is necessary to produce ozone, is a result of life and not a precursor to its genesis but hey, an interesting read anyhow.

Tonight's listening has a lot of catching up on new dailies/weeklies from today (friday) and yesterday (thursday).

Some Skeptic's Guide to the Universe, some , @Tindogpodcast, , This week in science (), , and then eventually I'll get to backlog and @RadioFreeSkaro episodes.

I don't think I'll get to any backlog history podcast episodes tonight, but 8 hours (well, 6 hours now) is quite a chunk of time.
