  In theories in which different regions of the universe can have different
values of the the physical parameters, we would naturally find ourselves in a
region which has parameters favorable for life. We explore the range of
anthropically allowed values of the mass parameter in the Higgs potential,
$\mu^2$. For $\mu^2<0$, the requirement that complex elements be formed
suggests that the Higgs vacuum expectation value $v$ must have a magnitude less
than 5 times its observed value. For $\mu^2>0$, baryon stability requires that
$|\mu|<<M_P$, the Planck Mass. Smaller values of $|\mu^2|$ may or may not be
allowed depending on issues of element synthesis and stellar evolution. We
conclude that the observed value of $\mu^2$ is reasonably typical of the
anthropically allowed range, and that anthropic arguments provide a plausible
explanation for the closeness of the QCD scale and the weak scale.
