I recently had the honor of participating in a live Chat with Dr. Michio Kaku on the Coast To Coast AM Website.

Dr. Kaku actually responded to two of my questions! Below are the two questions I asked, along with Dr. Kaku's responses.

Joe
Dr. Kaku, in the last show you did on Coast To Coast AM, you said that the mind is a neural network. Do you think that there is an "Observer" or Soul independent of that neural network?

Michio Kaku
It's hard to say. Science is based on reproducible evidence, and so far, no one, even believers, have been able to measure the presence of a soul. But that does not mean the soul does not exist, only that no one has been able to measure one.



Joe
Dr Kaku, Do you think SETI will ever detect a signal?

Michio Kaku
Not likely. We are looking in the wrong place. Even our e-mails, for example, are compressed and broken up, and then reassembled at the other end. If we were to intercept an e-mail message, it would appear as garbage. Hence, aliens in space might compress their messages and also send it over different frequencies and reassemble it at the other end.

Michio Kaku
In this case, we would only hear garbage. Hence, the universe might be teaming with signals from aliens, and we are too primitive to notice. Hence, I think the SETI people are well meaning, but woefully inadequate. The key problem is that scientists blindly assume that aliens are just like us, only a few decades ahead. We have to expand our minds, to grasp the possibility that they are millions of years ahead.
