Reply #3: It is great to focus attention on this process... [View All]

but I still don't see anything new here. I only read the abstract and it isn't stated clearly there whether the mechanism was identified. Was their water sample abiotic? If they've identified a strictly chemical process that occurs without a contribution by biological agents, that would be new; but I don't see that in the abstract.

In any case, thanks for the post. The more people understand this the better.
