A panel of scientists convened by America’s leading scientific advisory group says the hunt for extraterrestrial life should be greatly expanded to include what they call “weird life”: organisms that lack DNA or other molecules found in life as we know it, according to Reuters.

And these “scientists” are the people we’re supposed to be listening to when it comes to embryonic stem cell research, global warming…

Folks, if you’re looking for weird life you don’t have to look very far. Michael Moore is still walking around. Keith Richards is still technically “alive.” I just hope there’s not a whole lot of grant money going to these guys.
