If they really want extra terrestrials to show up, or even respond for that matter, they probably shouldn't go that direction.

why do people want aliens to turn up? they would probably just want to conquer the earth, enslave or eat the humans and exploit our resources... lol

I'm not sure why people want alien lifeforms to visit earth. It'll just turn into another one of those episodes like when the white man conquered North America, only we might be the injuns.

People think aliens would do that, because that's what WE would do! But maybe aliens are more enlightened, peaceful beings. And once we steal their technology we can enslave/eat them!
