Steinn is an astrophysicist

 

He does auguries with his iPod, using an ancient Chinese method taken from the iChing book.

 

he asks a question and sets his iPod to randomize and listens to the next 10 songs.

 

This time he asks:

 

will we have robust detection of candiates for genuinely habitable extrasolar planets around nearby main sequence stars by 2010?

And, if so, can you tell us more...

 

Whoosh goes the randomizer.

Whoosh.
