I share the frustration that we haven't discovered anything yet and honestly I didn't even think of the title being like that until you said anything. I just like the project. The more you dive into this the less shocking it is we haven't found anything and the more faith I have that we will find something, one day.

There are so many technical challenges to face with this and one of the major ones is with the software that scans the absolutely huge amounts of data. The data is available publicly so with a bit of study, the average engineer with understanding of radio waves and what not could get up to speed enough to potentially do some good.

Whether or not radio waves are even the best route to go is up for debate. There's a lot of interference and the longer they travel the weaker they are...There's some interesting techniques being used but like I said, the more I learn about how we're approaching this, the less faith I have in the project, which actually is a good thing. It means we're not doing "all that we can do" and when their 10 years is up and they haven't discovered anything, we don't have to lose hope that we aren't alone.
