Can someone check to see if they’re being sent by Warner Brothers cartoons?

We should put them in a phone tree. Press 1 if you are an alien...

There was another article saying that these bursts were not coming from deep space but were bouncing off stuff flying in front of the telescope and other radio dishes...hence the short burst.
My money is on this theory.

They’re just watching a war between planets 10,000 years ago.

I was talking to an electrical engineer with a government agency who was involved with SETI for a while. He said that if a planet took the equivalent of all the energy on earth and directed it into a beam pointed directly at us, and we had directed all of our resources at building a sensor directly pointed at that planet, we still wouldn’t pick up anything.

from Gizmo.com
For years, astronomers at the Parkes Observatory in Australia have puzzled over these brief but intense bursts, which in some ways appeared to emanate from deep space. But unlike the fast radio bursts we’ve also heard about recently, researchers knew that perytons were actually coming from somewhere nearby snip
But no one suspected perytons were coming from the lunch room, until astronomer Emily Petroff decided to install a real-time radio interference monitor at the Parkes telescope.
National Geographic’s Nadia Drake describes what happened next: In January, the telescope detected three of the [peryton] signals – and the interference monitor picked up three simultaneous interference signatures. The team recognized the interloping frequencies as possibly belonging to a microwave oven.
When Petroff and her colleagues tested their hypothesis, they found they could create perytons on demand simply by opening the oven door before the timer had dinged.

So any intelligent signal 3 billion light years away sent a message 3 billion years ago. So if they existed then, do they exist now? Most assuredly not in the same form as they did thenDetails, details....
