1) yes it exists, and we either will find it from seti. or when they land on our door step.
2) yes/no. yes to help find them, and no to not show we would be an easy target for conquest (to much sci-fi shows in me)
3) enjoy running programs that can actully benefit something/someone. and this project is good. waiting for the new format so i can run many diffrent projects.
and no suggestions.
