None Taken

James Brown — 7/22/2007 8:31:59 PM (archived)

I canâ€™t speak for Peter. In fact I have never met him but I have exchanged many emails with him. As I understand his theory he feels that there is more to music than just notes on a sheet or sounds in your ear and that *if* we were to be contacted by ET it *might* by via music. As far as â€˜heatâ€™ so far I feel none but it could be because of my thick skin (the old frog in a pot story).

Yes I am part of the SETI League and my station is an Argus station (DM12jw). There are several hundred members but only one or two that actually are collecting data and searching for ET. There are many stations in various states of construction.

As we speak my antenna is tracking the position of the star Alnitak on the constellation Orion. I am careful not to say â€˜tracking the star Alnitakâ€™ because I am not doing that. My station cannot receive any signal for any star and includes our own star Sol. I am moving my antenna in step with the earthâ€™s rotation so as to keep it trained on the stars location. This is done with software of my own invention
