Finding intelligent life on earth is hard enough :P

But I agree, life isn't an isolated thing limited to our world alone -- just too much space out there for things to happen in and it would be extremely egotistical to think this rock alone is capable of life. It might be extremely simplistic life out there, but life is life.
