Ahoy, shipmates!

Lights of big cities as indications of extraterrestrial, technologically advanced life?

Happened to notice an article by Messrs. Abraham Loeb and Edwin L. Turner: http://arxiv.org/abs/1110.6181.

This is going to be interesting to follow. At least something may be
detected that showed intelligent life, out there, may have existed
eons of years ago.

belong to a formal team so "fly their own kites" - as the saying goes.

My motto: Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow as it may not be required. This no longer applies in light of current events.
