Yummy!

I wouldn't be surprised if this was fairly common. A lot of the "solar systems" that they've found have had Jovians in very close orbits to the parent star. It's probably one the last gasps of the accretion process. Just a guess. I watch too much Discovery Channel, the pinnacle of scientific accuracy. (Although "How The Universe Works," narrated by Mike Rowe, is killer nifty, and on my must buy list as soon as it comes out. Awesome CGI, very good presentation.)
