SKY News report about a sister earth found

http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30200-1262484,00.html

at the bottom it reads:

Despite the 13-year wait for more detail, bookmakers William Hill have slashed the odds regarding the existence of intelligent extra-terrestrial life from 1000/1 to 100/1.

I like the odds 100/1 on something else living out there, for a tenner it could be worth it

Could be, however the facts that it will take so many billion years for a craft to reach the planet and confirm this may mean you're in for a bit of a wait

Could be worth it though.

Like the old man that bet £100 (as that was the maximum he was allowed to bet) that he would live to 100 when he was 90. He is now £25k better off

You put a tenner on now, William Hill will get the interest on the tenner for 13 years.

Aliens do exist. They're just waiting for Chuck Norris to die before they attack.
