interesting stuff. totally incomprehensible to me, but interesting. on another subject: does anybody need a kitten? Prout just called in whilst acquiring 5 - count 'em - 5 kittens. says they're very cute. all kittens at 6 weeks of age, which these may well be, or a little less, are cute. 3 blackish ones and two grey ones. all doubtless females. i am of the opinion that all kittens are born female and a certain (small) percentage of them become male just to keep the species going.

The theoretical possibility of such a device resurrects the Drake Equation with a vengeance.
"If such technology is possible, where are they?"
They being the supposed superior civilizations out in the rest of the galaxy.
