Probably Just an Alien Makeover Show

In today's "Just too cool to be true" department -

SETI@home has detected a signal worthy of a second look.

Sure, just a little while ago I saw a "UFO" that was probably the Hood milk blimp. And now this comes along. Just as the World Science Fiction Convention opens....

Coincidence?

If you say so, but look at the URL tag you used....

Sorry. I fail to see what mysterious information you seem to find in the url tags.

Where you wrote SETI@home has detected a signal worthy of a second look.

No, in fact, they haven't.

Well, technically, SETI@home has come up with about 150 instances that merited a second look...

Be that as it may, though - it turned out to be a false alarm, yes. But if every such thing were called "bunk", then the entire human population is made up of bunko artists.

Really. "Inaccurate" does not equal "bunk".
