I'm 37, a geek and a longhair from Wisconsin. I'm pretty normal/average 'cept for the mop.
You'd have to check me out at my
homepage. Re-writing my life story is not in my plan for today. ;) |

1. Think?? No... I'd bet my life on it. If humans can just step back and look at our situation as the mean, it'd give you a pretty good idea of how many different types of life are probably out there. The thermal vents on the bottom of the ocean should have been a major wake up call. Will we? Some day I'm sure. Not to say it'd happen in my lifetime, but I hope so. If we do I don't think it'll have a lot of impact. Some of us will change our thinking a bit, but "proof" is going to be difficult. You'd need a little green man walking down the street for John Q Public to "get it".
2. We're doing it anyway... signal leakage. We can't sit quietly in a rabbit hole to avoid the fox. It's not our nature. We'll stick our necks out and poke our noses around the universe. Will we be successful long term? Who knows... nature doesn't care if we are or not. Life will go on and that's comfort enough.
3. Tubes sitting there doing nothing are a major resource and they should be used for something. If I can help, I want to. We should know if we can... (We should also spend a lot more mapping asteroids so we don't get whacked! LOL) |
