DAVID: Wow!! What this means is that the process of life is exceedingly tough and can last though any type of trial. If they date back to before dinosaurs (250 myo) they were alive deep in the Earth at 300 myo!

dhw:Thank you for this. I can only echo your “wow!” But I thought bacteria dated back approx. 3.5 billion years, which is an even bigger wow!

You are comparing origin of life to a survival issue under very extreme conditions.
