I ran across <a href="http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/sciencenotfiction/2009/06/24/first-contact-how-to-avoid-threatening-to-slap-the-aliens-senseless/" target="_blank">this little blog entry</a> ruminating on how to communicate with aliens upon first contact. Embedded in this piece is the factual golden nugget that the TV show <em>I Love Lucy</em> whose broadcast signals have been traveling outbound from Earth at the speed of light since they were broadcast, have reached the potential ears of 105 G-type star systems like our own. I am not sure whether I consider this a good thing or a bad thing. Hopefully they have a sense of humor. If not, they may be headed this way with advanced weapons to keep that sort of humor contained.</p>
