Subject: [ExI] thought experiment and meaning of life

 

A virus of entirely human origin has wiped the planet of all people.  Shortly after aliens visit (irony, eh?).  They study us and our buildings, literature - everything - over many years…What will they say is the most important, the best thing we produced while we existed?   Wfw

 

Microprocessors.  That whole concept is just so damn cool, I would be very proud of us if an alien came along and saw that.  I would be more proud had we not slain ourselves with a homemade virus of course.
