Hype? TO think that we are the ONLY living beings in the entire SOLAR system, is just plain arrogant.
yes we are the only "intelligent life" in the solar system - a solar system is small, if you meant entire 'Universe' then I agree we're not alone.
maybe we get visited by Aliens, but they ain't gonna talk to us, or contact us. Do you go to the ocean and talk to the fish?
all I'm saying is there is a lot of military in the desert, and its more probable that its human innovation, rather then extraterrestrial.
I think there's most defiantly intelligent life out there, but in reality either they are so more advance then us they wont bother to even communicate with us, or no one in the universe has invented a way to move across 100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 billion miles yet
