I'd be fine with a thread for Mars chemistry, like this (but maybe better moved to Space Exploration), separate from Phoenix activity news, if chemistry is destined to be discussed deeply.
But, I'd add the speculation as to the source of the perchlorate would be most fruitful if preceded by strong evidence that the perchlorate actually exists. I haven't seen that reported in the informal news, yet, and certainly not published in the literature.
