Hey Arkcon... yeah 11 days in the mediteranian sun relaxes you more then u can imagine
Iīm glad PBW knew when to stop working
I understand your point Ruatha... I know that in the 30-ies old Adolf couldnīt exactly tune to Alpha Centauri between his looong screaming monolouges
It just that I read somewhere that the voyager probe (if put far away from Earth) would be able to record (again) the first Elvis song broadcasted on radio... I just concluded that with a big enough radio antenna one could pick up the first transmissions from our system... and vice versa.
P.S.: and of course my argument only included intelligent species that have the same tech level and are similarily developed as we are... use teh same tech (radio freq. that we use are such because they are most appropriate and they would prolly use the same ones) ther of course could be a hugely developed culture living on alpha centaury that has ships that reach warp 9.86
but communicates by telephaty and has no need for radio and such primitive junk
