  Most likely I would delete it as spam.
  
  Although hearing it coming from an outside location would generate riots and change our view of the universe.

    I would assume the author was talking out of his arse, estranged from reality, in a bunker perhaps? or maybe computer generated?
    certainly no sentient being
    
    consider it irrelevant and then delete it
    
    (the movie "contact" was based on this, wasnt it..)

      In a way... "Contact" is more concerned with SETI- It's been years since I've seen the film, but I can't remember mention of the Arecibo message directly. Should watch it again. I do know that the Arecibo message and the story/screenplay for "Contact" were both written (primarily) by Carl Sagan.
