I can't prove beyond any doubt that the rest of you aren't figments of my imagination and that I am just a brain in a jar sitting on some alien's lab shelf being stimulated with electrical currents to imagine all this. Maybe this is all just a dream like the death of Bobby Ewing on Dallas and I will wake up soon. It can't be proven that its not.

I don't know what Dean said -- I just knew that Hank would have posted what I did if I didn't beat him to it. Scientists can explain how life might come out of the primordial ooze, but it can't be proven even in the same way that evolution can be tested against the evidence. That's all.
