George: Saw this and thought of you: > > http://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/26/science/last-universal-ancestor.html?_r=1 > > Latest ideas from genetics on LUCA (last universal common ancestor). > Seems it probably lived in deep sea vents, rather than a Darwinian pond. > Still a lot of explanation needed as to how it appeared though. - Thank you George.
