Thanks! I'm glad you liked the article. After readings their paper I felt really intellectually stimulated. In the past I have just been left disappointed with discussions on the origins of life, but they approached it from such a sensical perspective. I actually also read a few chapters from Andy Pross's book What Is Life which is where I got his perspective on replicating chemistry. It seems like a really promising area of future research for chemists and evolutionary thinkers in general.

Also, if you want to watch a documentary about biology from a physicists perspective Wonders of Life by Brian Cox aired on the BBC recently!
