No.
As rational as they might have been, I'm sure they killed themselves millenia before their star died out.
Rationality and consciousness seem to fall back way too much on ego and greed for me to believe in a peaceful enough society to live all the way to that point.


Couldn't their psychological profiles have adapted differently enough to our current state of greed and outrage based human ones? They could probably cause us to make ourselves extinct one day (which is a pretty negative outlook, and "worst case", IMO), but that doesn't have to mean they'd be like that? They may actually be, I dunno, "nice"? ;-)

Regarding the question posed, I think in all the possibilities of the universe, it could have happened somewhere. But no way of knowing. I'd hope that they'd have evolved into being able to space travel and have a plan of action to GTF outta there before the light gets switched off, though. :)

I'm trying to get people to follow my music on SoundCloud. Not sure the best way to go about it. If you can, and are into music, follow me- Jokatech on SoundCloud and if you like the stuff let people know. Thanx

I believe so, though you might have to possibly create a quick listener account. But it's really worth it. It's real easy, and I like the variety I get to hear as a listener on that site. It's kinda hard to campaign music and music pages these days. My friend who I educated into the music business has gotten a publicist in his brother helping him with his music and clothing line which he copied me on, and he has more followers on SoundCloud than a lot of the B class celebrities on there which is amazing. I have much respect and love for what he's accomplished, and I am relatively new to SoundCloud. I actually used to have a SoundClick and Myspace page which were doing relatively well before myspace pulled the rug and Soundclick went obsolete. Now, I've watched a lot of young inexperienced, and sometimes even unpolished and unready artists come up after me and pass me in notoriety. I know I could put more work in, but how you go about it has changed.

I cannot remotely see anything bad possibly resulting from this whatsoever. :-k
