If you've read about how modern cosmology may imply that, in an infinite universe, the existence of planets and the life forms that live on them must be repeated an infinite number of times, you may have been just a little bit excited, that out there, could exist an hell off a lot of "you". But wait! A chap named Alfonseca explained to Phys.org. this easy-peasy thingy:"If there is an infinite number of possible histories, the fact that there is a given history (or a finite number) leading to life does not make that history probable: its probability would be 1 divided by infinity, which is zero,"
Got it? So...as you're not likely to bump into a much more acceptable version of yourself any time soon, don't flog off the exercise bike.
