SETI scientists find intelligent life on Earth

[LongTomH]

But, Seriously folks, (as Bob Hope used to say!) there's a fun piece at Phil Platt's Bad Astronomy Blog. It seems that the SETI Institute is coming out with a big story today. No, they haven't found E.T. yet; at least Phil doesn't think so.

The fun stuff is down in the comments section. Check these out:

Of course, maybe they didn’t find intelligent life. Maybe they found Republicans living on Persei Omicron VIII.

Damn. I was hoping for a parasite brain slug invastion. Oh well, there’s always republican talk radio.

I heard they are going to announce their new major sponsor, “The Discovery Institute”. On the radio show, Skeptical Sundays will change to Mass. Host my the newly ordained Father Shostak.( some people will do anything for money).

Someone connected with Seti has said “That finding evidence for intelligent signals will be easier by throwing out all the dumb science ideas and just have faith that all signals are intelligent and just go from them.”

t can’t be intelligence in the white house. Their equipment is not yet sensitive enough for such weak signals.
