Yes Mike, I agree, it's very interesting, and I see 'they' as not only possible, but overwhelmingly probable. As a kid, I would go out on a chilly night and gaze up at the stars, sometimes thinking such thoughts...us looking at them looking at us looking at them...and I remember being bothered by the fact that we were separated by a gulf of time. Now, I'm not so sure that's important. There's a kind of spiritual connection in the mystery and the beauty of it all.
