Hmmm, if Hawking is correct:
"If the same holds for intelligent aliens, then they might not last long," he said. "Perhaps they all blow themselves up soon after they discover that E=mc2. If civilizations take billions of years to evolve, only to vanish virtually overnight, then sadly we've next to no chance of hearing from them."
Then Saden's hope of reaching a Type III civilization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale) seems sadly unattainable.
