[ExI] Earth's deep crust could support widespread life

[Kelly Anderson]

Why are they sticking with the idea that life developed at hydrothermal
vents THEN spread underground? Wouldn't the opposite direction make even
more sense? There is so much more rock down there than space around vents.
Also, many of the clay models for abiogenesis would work better down there.
I don't know why scientists get stuck on ideas that aren't proven. Or maybe
it's just science writers...
