i think somebody said this on another thread (sorry if im butchering it), but someone said nasa is saying its major discovery was that the crater where discovery is used to be submerged in water. its a big deal. but on the other hand we are secretly meeting with aliens. he made a good point, and it made me think. only problem is now im even more stumped. if aliens really are here and they are hiding them there must be a good reason.

If that's really the case, I'd say you do have a point

If SETI was created as a distraction then it hasn't really had that much of an impact, I think that the number of people that are involved is quite a small percentage of the worlds population.
I think that madmartinez has got a point about extraterrestrials using a more advanced means of transmitting signals , but that is assuming that all life out there is advanced to a higher level than us on earth.
some may still be using radio waves , some may not yet have discovered them.
If we do find a signal, the chances are that whoever sent it is long gone, and it has taken thousands of years to reach us. who knows.
I just know that there is a chance , however slim that we could find something.
Until we have aliens landing on the whitehouse lawn ,or outside 10 downing street
or wherever they chose to first make them selves known, this is the only part that I can play in trying to find the truth.
I don't think that SETI has distracted me from looking elsewhere for alien life, even here on earth already, I just like to keep all my options open thats all

I highly doubt that any really advanced civilizations that had advanced technology would try and send a message instead of using their space craft and just coming here to take a good look for themselves.
I believe that telepathy is the communication of the future and is only used by civilizations that are truly advanced and enlightened.

but I don't think that SETI is particularly trying to find advanced civilisations, just a sign that we are not alone.
It might not come in the form of a message that is sent out to make contact but simply just the sound of their existance, in the same way that we have inadvertantly littered space with the sounds of our communications systems.
Alien life may well use telepathy to communicate, but let the psychics of this world try to tune in to that, SETI is the only way that I can attempt it. But as I say, I still have an open mind about the whole alien issue.
All I'm doing is letting a little screen saver run on my PC, while I keep an eye on this forum to try and discover whats really out there.
