True... Texas might very well decide to not go down with the rest of us. :lol:

Don't worry. I'll head to Oregon and dig up the Ark. There should be enough room for all of DITL on it.

Speak for yourself. I'm having a BBQ when the end is coming and I fully plan on giving life the big finger just before the end.

But couldn't, theoretically, aliens pick it up at anytime, or would we have data from the probes to suggest them coming?
They could, but at that point they'd be so close as to not need the probe to find us. That probe has been flying for 30+ years and is only now leaving the outer edges of our solar system. It'll be tens of thousands of years before it reaches anything interesting, if at all.
One of the sillier things about ST V... Klaa blows up Pioneer with his Bird of Prey. I always imagine some Starfleet guy on Earth sitting up and screaming "Red Alert! There's a Klingon ship right outside the solar system!" :D

And listening to early to mid 20th century TV and radio broadcasts? :)
