> You got any more of those ? It's not quite the same as it's true, but.... As you know, when NASA, JPL, et al send up probes, they include experiments to try and detect signs of life. Because Galileo (I think) had to fly by Earth on its way to Jupiter, they turned the sensors on Earth and did the same tests. The results were that indicators of life having evolved were a strong positive but there were no detected signs of intelligent life. The largest landmass visible to the spacecraft during the tests was Australia. Draw your own conclusions.
