Throw in Doctor
-aware lifeforms without
difficult transitions. And difficult transitions imply large, empty
universes.

Hi all,
Long-time listener, first-time caller.
My favourite answer to the Fermi Paradox has been that the aliens are
using nearly-perfect compression or encryption for their radio signals
(if they're using radio), and that's why all we can detect is noise.

Friends:
whoever is interested in the real background of the
stories behind the Fermi Paradox - and did not read
this so far - should click
http://www.setileague.org/askdr/hungary.htm
and read it.
I wanted to write the story, but first checked Google
for authenticity and found this Wikipedia
it salable.) My story
supported the Zookeeper idea: they had an
energy-kind unknown in our physical system, with 3
poles (one + one - and a third one) and a direct
communication through it: mind to mind. They, however
could 'read' us. No radio-waves.
I think the Fermi paradox is just as obsolete
suggest that
any TOE based on all possible computations is too small to
accomodate a really general notion of all possible universes.
And this general line of reasoning leads to a Many Worlds Version of
the Fermi Paradox: Why aren't they here?
The reason I lean toward the shut up and calculate
us,
visited us, etc.
This is a variant of the Fermi Paradox raised to a very high power.
A similar idea has been advanced about time travel. If it will someday
be possible, why aren't we being visited from the future?
However both proposals could be patched up against this objection
