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)
