Anthropic Principle

In physics and cosmology, the anthropic principle is the philosophical argument that observations of the physical Universe must be compatible with the conscious life that observes it. Some proponents of the argument reason that it explains why the Universe has the age and the fundamental physical constants necessary to accommodate conscious life. As a result, they believe that the fact that the Universe's fundamental constants are within the narrow range thought to allow life is not remarkable.
It occurs to me that not only must it allow conscious life to exist, it must allow me to exist and furthermore to exist now.  My span of life is infinitessimal compared to the [presumed] infinity of time.
