I find the drake equation rather limiting.
Life has a funny habit of showing up everywhere. Superheated thermal vents, the ice of Antarctica, hell there's even a species of bacteria that's happily munching away on plutonium in nuclear reactors.
Seems to me that no matter what the conditions anywhere, as long as there's something that can be converted to energy, life will arise to convert it.
