have devastating societal impact anyway?

Ok, Ok, so maybe you have a point. They could have become extinct, and they
could have had the foresight to see this coming, and they could have built a
face on the surface of our closest planetary neighbor, BUT I have a hard
time believing this!
For one thing, assuming this potential race is somewhat similar in
intelligence to us (for the sake of argument!), why would they have allowed
themselves to become extinct...indeed how would they have known about their
impending destruction? Either way, this is all speculation, and I believe
if an extraterrestrial race of even mild intelligence wanted to leave us a
message of ANY sort, I believe they would do it in a way that would leave no
doubt about their existence. Could you imagine the time and expense they
would have to endure whilst making this so-called "face"? And then when we
do find this "Face" we don't quite know what to make of it! It's far to
complex a medium of communication to use. Why wouldn't they leave
something a little more profound, like maybe a model of a human skeleton,
complete with very visible structures. (ie structures that can be seen from
ANY direction). This is just too much imporbability for me, I think we must
just wait and see if anything else comes along which offers a little more
proof.
Later, Max.
