There's irony here.
It's ironic!
On the one hand we have skeptics tearing apart
the hypothesis that the martian meteorite, ALH84001, contains fossils.
On the other hand, evidence for life existing at one time on Mars has
never looked better.....What with the discovery of methane
in the martian atmosphere; the discovery that the Meridiani Planum
region was once soaked with liquid-water for a longtime; the discovery
of those countless spherule concretions ['blueberries'] which may have
accreted/formed around dead bacteria; and the discovery of extremophile
bacteria in inhospitable zones on our own planet.
