Democracy is also a potentially eye- or antenna- catching subject. "The maths shows that with more than two choices, there is no perfect electoral procedure," says Dutil. He has started work on encoding this into a message in which "we can explain our methods and ask, 'What do you use on your planet?'"

There is a blog on the source of this clip, that sports suggestions

Tell us who you think should be in charge of composing messages to ET.

suggestions range from: Jody Foster to Buckminster Fuller.

An interesting topic. Thx wildcat.

Thx FtF, I think we can help them by sending the clipcast of interests in the CM community of clippers.
something like "Clips in Space"..

DUH

Maybe saying I wanna have hot sex with an alien? I bet I could get those guys to reply back

@wildcat....that's what I was thinking. They haven't been to Clipmarks yet. They'd never be bored here.

@ Wildcat heh, heh

I don't think contacting ET life is a very good idea just yet. We'd be easy pickings.

Now, they are working to compose more interesting messages.

they should use the service of some brilliant script writers (anyway there are so many unemployed or on strike ... -))

interplanetary spam

*LOL*

Didn't we send our art works out on a record? Even tho we only 'diected' a few messages our brodcasts of radio and television have been travelling for quite some time.
Consider also that cell phone transmissions are also being broadcasted.

all the more reason why the title is correct..
imagine "them" listening to our phone transmissions..

magine "them" listening to our phone transmissions

OMG Wildcat! Debby has had some phone transmissions in her past that she never would want overheard

were you THAT boring deb?

Let's just send out one line as follows:

"Free Beer"

I'm sure we'll get a response like:

"What time?"

I'll get Stephen Hawking working on it right away.

*LOL* Wildcat.

"Free Beer"

Rfnajera,
I think the response would be:

"At TN's?"

I already have "Free beer!" painted on the roof my house. I am waaay ahead of you guys!

No response yet though, but honestly, if the message "Free beer!" can't get them to reply, then are they really worth having over? Hmm?

A few parachuters drop in from time to time though...
