They are very likely to be millions or billions of years ahead of us technologically and far superior to us in intelligence. So we would be animals compaired to them. <br />If we appoint a human ambassador to aliens then maybe monkeys should appoint an ape ambassabor to our United Nations.<br />Both ambassadors are equally silly.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08920507080056542155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6753820.post-1935885198240873482010-09-27T06:11:01.898-04:002010-09-27T06:11:01.898-04:00They have commitees, subcommitees, programmes, cen...They have commitees, subcommitees, programmes, centers, sessions, reports, events, conferences, etc., etc., bla, bla, bla.

Even 20 years ago if you had asked any scientist if there were lots and lots of planets in our galaxy I'm sure they'd say yes.<br /><br />But hey, who am I to complain about Earth's first exoplanetary ambassador?
