There is a curious mail 15 web site. This website is leaving people
completely convinced that contact with intelligent extraterrestrial
has already occurred. It is www.seti4.mail15.com

What do you think of it?


It's crap, and I think you are disingenuous........


The theory that the web site presents is not absolutely new. Its
roots can be traced back to sometime before 1966, when the basic idea
was suggested as a possibility that should be researched, in
Intelligent Life in the Universe, by I.S. Shklovskii and Carl Sagan.
The idea is that contact was made between Sumerian villagers and
intelligent aliens thousands of years ago. Photos of certain
archaeological artifacts-- ancient art called cylinder seals&#35617;ere
published in the 1966 book.

The evidence presented on that web site, though, seems to be light-
years more evolved than what Shklovskii and Sagan offered.

......because of the above sentence.
