Earth-like Planet Discovered
Scientists have discovered an Earth-like planet orbiting a red dwarf star 20 light-years away. What do you think?

"If it's Earth-like, then it's probably near destruction and of no use to us."
Eirc Steinway,
Social Worker
"How Earth-like? 'Temperate and able to sustain life' Earth-like or 'completely overrun with self-absorbed assholes' Earth-like?"
Melody Thorsen,
Tour Guide
"Did scientists find any tall, single men on that Earth? I've pretty much exhausted my possibilities here."
