Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
1. Yes. It has already discoverd and made contact us within the last decade. Meaning, man has evolved his "technology" in a major way within the last hundred years. Almost everything we use in our everyday lives has been invented in the last century. Why now?? It's something to think about anyway.
They might not like us. Or their technology could save us.
2. Sure... invite them to dinner. Send them a "Have A Nice Day" Smiley Face.
3. Not really sure. No opinoin yet. None
