Fantastic topic! In this vein I would like to point out why I think SETI efforts are doomed to failure. Even SETI has stated the EM emissions from Earth are greatly diffused after only 2.5 light years. Alpha Centauri could be broadcasting their version of the "leave it to beaver" and we would never know. Also we make the assumption that an intelligent species must be a technological species. Thats because we always use ourselves as the measuring stick to judge others. Unless "they" can invent their version of a "Ginzoo Knife"and of course patent it, they cant be an intelligent race. Well gang, I think thats crap.

Consider our world. We know without a shadow of a doubt certain sea creatures, who live in the oceans with its small variable's of temp, and chemistry, we know whales, dolphins, etc, have had a mind numbing acoustic language going back at least ten million years. I think the whales, dolphin, have had the great luxury not needing to stand before the tax people who foot the bills. I think the math alone of what they think, what they figure out, is very valuable to us. So to contact intelligent ET's who fall into this catagory, we need to bring the mountain to Mohamed. .
interesting, telepathy.... what other forms of communication are there and what type of intelligence does it require? Reading body language would be people smart... animal smarts, is that the same thing, or does that fall in nature smart? we are part of nature... human nature.

Telepathy takes empathy, empathy takes people smarts and belief it can be done.

Curious to know do you have "gifts" seagrass.....i think it is a part of intelligence's basic package......I am very open to telepathy to those that I love and rarely others if I focus really hard. I also can see/touch people and feel/know where they hurt sometimes (I am a dr. btw)....sometimes energy transferrance occurs and I get the patient's symptoms....they heal and I feel like crap for a few days (and I am not talking colds)--headaches, cancer, back pain, etc.....

I do, but nothing I can count on. Comes in a flash, and gone. Enough to make it due to coincidence. And yet, you wonder. I have experienced it many times. I have also said I can sense emotion in others who I am not even watching. I think I also am very good at body language because I had to learn to understand people I didn't. My family being different and seemingly more "powerful", I watched closely. I am a watcher. I pay attention to people. I have gifts in people skills. Although I am creative, I tend to do better there. I majored in art in college, and failed miserably. But when I changed to psychology I couldn't fail. I could guess and get the right answers. I got the attention of my professors. I did well in my internship, but by the time I had graduated, I wanted no more of it. Burned out. I have always been the one people come to with their problems, but I don't want to follow the "structured rules" of a license. To become a doctor or counselor. I think in a weird way, that I have had my experiences in pain and suffering, because I will meet someone along the way, and it will have been useful for them. Almost like I take courses in real life to be able to answer questions when they come up.
I also don't want to be paid for it.
I am always in tune to people.. so I spend a lot of time alone. There are times when I am "materialistic" because things aren't as much of a "noise" than people. My creativity is therapy, and I love decorating and making places better. That I allow myself to be paid for.

I have a good friend that is extremely "book smart." He knows everything you ask him. Although he is smart in such areas he has no common sense what-so-ever. He is also one of the most arrogant and pompous people I know.

I also know of another Intelligence that I think we would all find quite Interesting. It is called fluid intelligence. It can be defined as: "little to do with IQ or "book" intelligence. It is rather the ability to step outside of our beliefs and consider information which does not fit into our previously accepted view of reality."

There is also "Static Intelligence," which is the opposite of fluid Intelligence.

"Static Intelligence can be defined as: "an idividual that is rarely willing to reconsider or challenge their established beliefs, are said to have static intelligence. They are rarely willing to think outside of the box."

I thought this was interesting as most of us would have "Fluid Intelligence," but to keep us in check there are the ones with "Static Intelligence."

artificial intelligence

two types...
Weak A.I. refers to technology that is able to manipulate predetermined rules and apply the rules to reach a well-defined goal (Bethell, 2006). This type of A.I. is presently incorporated into society, especially in large industries. Assembly lines, for example utilize programs that allow machines to work independently of their operator for hours on end (Bethell, 2006). Voice recognition software is also considered a large part of artificial intelligence (Bethell, 2006).

The second form of artificial intelligence is strong A.I. Strong A.I. refers to technology that has the ability to think cognitively or is able to function in a way similar to the human brain

This may be the only way we are going to communicate with whales or dolphins. and other forms of life. I would be fun to be able to communicate with a plant.
