Isabel Arantes verbalized:

	I've come to the conclusion that there is truly no other intelligent
life out there, so why the hell am I bothering to post this? :)

I don't know.  

There is NO intellegent life in the Universe.  Especially on this planet
(hell, we are the people that still think digital watches are pretty neat,
after all).

It could be worse, you could have posted this out to the other
non-intellegents of the universe and had Zaphod-Beeblebrox say,

"Hey, I'm a cool guy.  In fact I'm a super cool guy.  Now, that I've read
this story (which I really didn't understand because I don't know anything
about it) I feel even cooler."

Not only that, he could then come find you to thank you for writing it.  And
you know what kind of trouble that would bring.

Any way, I hope this bought of silliness has shown you that truely, there is
no intellegent life out here.  :)
