* The METI issue is of a piece with the unification of language on a world such as the Earth, communication with the cosmopolitan culture, and the means by which this occurs, assumed to be direct mental connection between species capable of at least transcieving via individuals selected and/or selectively bred for this purpose (the explanation for the development of the language faculty generally). | * The METI issue is of a piece with the unification of language on a world such as the Earth, communication with the cosmopolitan culture, and the means by which this occurs, assumed to be direct mental connection between species capable of at least transcieving via individuals selected and/or selectively bred for this purpose (the explanation for the development of the language faculty generally). | ||
