What Sam wants
[!0.987]2016-03-25
I thought you would spend your bonus closer to home.
Helix, it will take my race at least five hundred years to get into space. More than likely, over a thousand. Imagine where the human race is going to be then.
It's not just the culture and technology. It's the whole Terran ecology. Horses! Cows! Ducks! And I understand there are creatures from earth that are even more terrifying.
Without a planet to tempt them, my race is going to encounter the humans, go home, turn off all the radios and live the rest of their collective lives hoping you don't notice them.
