So all those years of the SETI app running in place of a screen saver has come up trumps.

I am sure someone detected a signal from extra terrestrial sources before. Sure of it.

Suntzeff added that he would not be surprised if the signal was due to a terrestrial origin, because it was observed in part of the radio spectrum used by the military. "God knows who or what broadcasts at 11Ghz, and it would not be out of the question that some sort of bursting communication is done between ground stations and satellites,"

[url= http://www.ofcom.org.uk/static/spectrum/fat.html ]OFCOM frequency allocations[/url] show shedloads of stuff which (coincidentally?) suggests military and/or satellite links.

I'll prepare for a probing though, just in case.

Make sure you only boil enough water for what you need, do the right eco thing. When Mrs goat boils the kettle, I can then use the excessive water for my next three cups of coffee!
