Default How common are Earths?

http://www.world-science.net/othernews/090105_planets

This refers tio White Dwarf observarions. Aparently asteroid type
material goes into fine pices when orbiting a white dwarf.

The observations made by the Spitzer telescope indicate that the
material of rocky planets is common.
