Dr. Stephen Hawking recently theorized about the possibility of life in places other than Earth. And while lately it seems like Dr. Hawking is in the news for pop-science opinions rather more often than for actual scientific research, he brings up a few good ideas.

• …has already nuked itself.
• …is vastly intelligent and want nothing to do with our meager selves and our ass-backwards planet.
• …have a dominant species (like Earth’s humans) that share a lot of traits with Dan O’Bannon’s Geiger-inspired aliens and we’re better off not discovering them…or being discovered by them.

Since I was a small boy, I’ve daydreamed. My parents/teachers/coaches constantly scold me for drifting off in thought, neglecting the task at hand, and I haven’t grown out of it.Daydream Revelation posts are my random thoughts about anything and everything that form without warning. Some of them are new. Some of them have existed since I was a child. Some have been refined over the years, while others have not. Either way, I’m documenting them on my blog. Enjoy, or don’t.
