We are all doomed! The monkeys fiddle... while Rome fiddles with innocent children. I blame Usenet, off-topic, kookey cross-posters for all the confusion. Post in astronomy. Get hit with monkey sticks in talk.origins. Question the value of SETI and get a full frontal lobotomy c/of myopic, planetary ignoramuses. IQs abound but specialisation is a hamstring injury. Understanding is absent. We talk quite another language. Why do dolphins and whales get such bad press from Mensa? Do you do urdu? Greek? Hebrew? Grønlandsk? Sign language? .... Oh... dear. Maintain radio silence! It's the least we can do to maintain the status quo. The failure to utilise the world's full potential intelligence is surely a crime against humanity? 40 million working poor in the USA. Country of opportunity. Rewards only the corrupt. 946 billionaires exist in the known universe. Taxation is:a) A farce b) Unfair. c) Duh... Don't know. Hungry? Let them eat clay cake. Silverbacks rule! Wayhay! Now there's progress! Burma? Darfur? UN Resolution 999999999999999999999 vetoed by Chinese arms factory bosses. Pandas extinct in the wild! Whoops! Sorry about that! Liverpool 1 Manchester United 3.

Brown note! shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :-)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) I love Usenet. Opinions are two a penny and worth every red cent. Auto-dumning down to *our* level. The BBC would be proud! Every keyboard has an inflated ego. Delusions of grandeur. Masters of none.

Hmmm... A complex and inspired intelligence too subtle and quick for this poor amphibian to follow? Or someone simply too lazy or disinterested to make an attempt to actually communicate? The data set is still too small to tell. There *are annoying restrictions to language conventions, but without them there is no language at all, only grunts. Kermit, the *Other Frog
