SETI is incapable of detecting extraterrestrial technologies. And the search
for extraterrestrial life is far more encompassing than the subset of SETI.
Shall we see a mere handful of SETI talks ( no doubt made into posters, like
a kid's science fair) at this meeting? Why does NASA's astrobiology
initiative--which excludes SETI-- dominate an international scientific
conference?
Think about it...
