..¤.¤¤¤¤¤. lot of us have antennas on our houses .¤.¤.¤¤.¤¤
.¤¤¤....¤. or balconies, we have built large ¤¤¤¤¤.¤¤.¤

¤.¤¤..¤... build specialized antennaes for ...¤.¤¤...
¤¤.¤.¤¤... specific wavelengths (and sent them ..¤¤¤.¤..¤
.¤¤¤¤.¤..¤ into orbit), we've built large as fuck .¤..¤¤¤.¤.
¤...¤¤¤.¤. antenna arrays ¤¤.¤..¤¤¤.
¤..¤..¤¤¤¤ we've virtually built an antenna with a .¤¤¤.¤..¤¤
¤.¤¤.¤...¤ dish as large as earth. ¤..¤¤¤.¤..
¤¤.¤¤¤..¤¤ ¤.¤..¤¤¤.¤
.¤¤..¤.¤.. we've learned about our position in the ¤¤¤.¤..¤¤.

¤¤¤...¤... ¤.¤¤......
..¤..¤¤..¤ and we're moving around the sun at ¤¤.¤.....¤

¤.¤¤¤¤¤¤.. center of the galaxy at velocity and ¤..¤...¤.¤
¤¤.....¤.¤ the galaxy is moving toward andromeda ¤.¤¤..¤¤¤.
.¤....¤¤¤. and we're both moving anticlockwise ¤¤.¤.¤..¤¤

.¤..¤¤.¤.. have learned to take all that in account ¤....¤¤¤¤.
¤¤.¤.¤¤¤.¤ ¤...¤...¤.
.¤¤¤¤..¤¤. and despite all this, despite all our ¤..¤¤..¤¤¤

.¤¤.¤..... ..¤¤.¤¤..¤
¤.¤¤¤....¤ most opponents to intelligent life in .¤.¤¤.¤.¤¤
¤¤..¤...¤. the universe say it's because you need ¤¤¤.¤¤¤¤..

.¤....¤.¤. ¤¤.¤¤¤.¤..
¤¤...¤¤¤¤¤ i think everyone agrees that we have no .¤¤..¤¤¤..
