Maybe the extraterrestrials have received our signals but just decided that it would be wiser not to respond.
To: Savage Beast
Have a look at our radio and TV broadcasts over the last 75 years.
If you were an alien, would you want to talk to us?
To: petuniasevan
No.
In fact I'd make sure it looked like there was nobody out there. Maybe that's what they've done...: "Nobody out here."
You can't blame them.
To: Savage Beast

Guess we'll just have to live up to our reputation
as the unwashed yokels of the Orion Arm of the Milky Way.

To: petuniasevan
Thanks! Interesting concept, that SETI. I had wondered what successes they were having. Clicking one of the first links and hearing the sound is fascinating whether it's a stray wave from a satellite or ... ?

ET to aide: If earth calls, I'm not here. hehehe 

To: petuniasevan
LOL! Well, we're the unwashed yokels of the Earth. Might as well be the unwashed yokels of everything else while we're at it.
To: petuniasevan
P.S. Are those great quotes yours? I'd like to put them in my famous quote file!
To: petuniasevan
True, Earth is probably considered the "pit" of the Orion arm .... any aliens out there likely give us a wide berth (except for the occasional "tourist" ;^)
