Re: Methane storm on Titan? - implications for methane on mars?

Following the recent descovery by Cassini of a dense 'methane cloud' on Titan (or an area of intense methane activity) see
http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/news/press-r … a.cfm]Nasa press release

and http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/catalog/PIA06405]Press release 2

And following the anomolous methane descovered in the Martian atmosphere, what are the implications for life, could this now be more likley due to volcanic activity or is the remote possibity of life on Titan more tenable??

Thoughts anyone?
