    You mean there are more than two? Ted Turner…and Disney, Inc. are laughing all the way to the bank. I am willing to bet Telemundo carries more on one channel than I get on all of my expanded basic.

    The SETI people have been making claims like this for decades. It makes for some good science fiction but it’s poor physics. By the time the signal gets to anyone/anything interested, there will be no way to tell which photon was part of Lucy and which was part of Desi.

    I’m sure Lucy would wear anything for a laugh, but Desi would never put a photon.

    William Tidler Jr.: True dedication good sir! I admire a man with such. p.s. how ‘bout that yellow!? Now that is a yellow of which a fellow could be proud. A yellow which (back home in Indiana) one could sternly salute. A strong yellow, yes, yet…. -soft voice- a yellow to make the babies sleep safely, and happily more secure.

    I want to know when are going to start getting TV shows from the aliens? How about some reciprocity here? A little give and take? They’ve gotten about 50 years of free programming here. I think it’s time for some return on our investment, you know? Because lord knows the programming I get on DISH puts my dog to sleep. Do I really need 30 shopping channels? And, call me a sissy if you you like, all the sports channels are worthless. I pay $$$ for 250 ‘premium’ HD channels and there are less then five worth watching.

    But the color is great, thanks for noticing. Especially the yellow.

    Hugh B. Hayve: Dear Mr. B. Hayve, -if I may call you so- allow me to compliment you on the poem/lyrics(?) in you post. (Your creation?)

    We, -the good wife and I- very much like it. It hints of #F6F903, so simple, so sweet.

    aerwalt: Keen observation I say, such that even Messers. Holmes and the Good Dr. Watson would cheer! … …
