I voted 'no'.

It's possible, but I don't think that it's 'more likely than not'.

I voted undecided, for exactly the same reason.
Too many unknown factors to make a decision.

I voted yes. I think its likely that several alien species are already aware of us. But think about it. You're an advanced species exploring life on other planets. You come across a primitive species called human on one of them. How much interest would you have? Not much I'd say. You are more interested in encountering species at your same level or even more advanced. So you do a few flyovers and move on. That's the way I see it at least.

I voted undecided for reasons as expressed in post#12 of another thread. With the addition of this: If there were aliens in our local neighborhood that could study extrasolar planets and infer that there was one around Sol that was inhabited with a technological civilization, then we should likewise be able to discern that about their world eventually.

But even in the context of the "complex life is abundant" camp, I feel it's unlikely that a couple of open-ended inventive species would arise during the same era within hundreds or less light-years of each other. Still, if there's the possibility of our detecting ET industrial signs as much as they of ours, then its not a wholly untestable speculation; and to be proceeding upon it assumes suspended belief either way.

Thers prolly 1 Alien species which is top-dog... that destroys other life after it has evolved to a certan level (we may have less than 100 years to go)... in any case... i dout that any advanced Aliens are lookin for other life to make friends.!!!

Besides top-dog... any Alien species advanced enuff to do earth drive-by snoopin woud have alredy been destroyed.!!!
