Contacting Aliens Could End All Life on Earth. Let's Stop Trying - The Washington Post

Physicist and science editor Mark Buchanan worries that this "end" is perhaps the biggest potential human impact from proof of ET presence in the universe. He is not only against METI--Messaging Extra Terrestrial Intelligence--he also contends that SETI's increased funding and sophistication make the discovery of alien intelligence more likely--and even that worries him, for reasons he elucidates. Susan Demeter offers Discussing UFOs with Your Kids. Demeter mentions two books she found very useful when her children were young. There's also a new volume out by Scientific Coalition for Ufology Executive Board Member Robert Powell called The Truth About UFOs: A Scientific Perspective intended for ages 7-11. Interestingly, The Guardian's Linda Jacobson says The Truth about UFOs is out There, and US Students are Trying to Find It. In a move that would horrify the late Howard P. Robertson and Edward U. Condon, "Teachers across the US are taking advantage of the government's report on UFOs to engage students with science." And we close with Billy Cox' So Long, Mr. Reiss. A touching tribute to a dead man whose UFO interests were largely unknown to those near him. (WM)
