Hmm.... I've always been fascinated by the thought of other lifeforms especially highly evolved ones (fay beyond us I mean).

But given that a highly advanced race could have highly advanced weaponry, do you think we should be trying to contact them? To be honest I'd rather leave them be, so we could evolve our own technology. Whose to say they will take kindly to us annoying insects.

To be honest if they come looking I doubt its to destroy us, more like to find ut about us, no one knows really but if theyre advanced im sure they have gotten over this aggressive war crap.

Den.

I'd agree with you there.... But I always like to throw that curve ball in as another angle for people to think about.

'Cause I really don't want to bump into something like Cthulhu. Smile
