First develop a good bull**** filter by going he

And do not waste any more time or money promoting this variety of nonsense.

Besides, it is way off-topic.

The movie "White Noise" appears to have generated a lot of attention to this
phenomenon lately. The reason I'm bringing it up here is because I have
read of several people hearing messages that have an unidentifiable language
and are believed to come from elsewhere in the Cosmos. I really wonder
about this phenomenon and whether or not it is real? Are astronomical
instruments like radio telescopes, etc able to listen to white noise the way
an apparent noisy tape recorder does? The way the supposed messages are
received almost seems too simple and contradicts, IMO, what radio telescopes
and the like have been trying to accomplish for many years now: the
determination of life outside the solar system. Is this broad white noise
wavelength something that should be monitored on a regular basis
professionally, or is this all someone's great fantasy and doesn't deserve
any more attention than it already has?

Like to read what others think. Personally, I can't say either way as I
have never conducted any white noise experiments myself, but I don't feel
very confident especially when you compare with the enormous sensitivity of
radio scopes which, to my knowledge, have never received any signals
representing intelligence elsewhere.

Thanks,
Bob
