Presumably, Gordon, you think that there can be no hope of ever 
communicating with aliens (if they exist). All we can do is send them 
'meaningless' symbols encoded in various ways.

Presumably something like:

*
1

**
2

***
3

^
1

^^
2

^^^
3

1
1

11
2

111
3

and so-on, cannot possibly convey the meaning of numbers up to three?
