We're HERE! Alien predators...
« on: June 11, 2004, 08:45:41 PM »
lol,
Using a radio waves transmitter that sends voice messages to outer space, a Pennsylvania company is enabling people to launch belated goodbyes to lost loved ones, words of comfort to missing pets or birthday wishes to a family member...

Endless Echoes, which began operation formally this month, allows people to dial a telephone number and record a one-minute voice message. It's then transmitted into space via a radio dish in Germantown, Md., and theoretically travels forever at the speed of light.

(er, until it`s absorbed by dust and gas)

I think I'd rather have my message transmitted in binary pulses of neutrinoes. Let's see those things get absorbed by dust!

Erm...but they're kinda hard to detect, too. :-P

 Er... how do they know it`s pointing in the right direction?
 Do they re-align the dish for those who`re spending time in purgatory ?
