    All I ask is they speak English! 
    We can work with how advanced they are after that little request.

    Wow, that's truly a difficult choice: if less advanced, I could rule, I could be like Superman on Planet Earth.  If more advanced, I could learn so much!

    Randy, you are missing that ”less advanced” could also encompass natives tossing you in a pot and eating you. 
    Or, it could be like Pakistan. Who wants that?

    I would love to tell you when you have time and a dime...a dime for the phone!  It's a phone booth joke.  Big smiles!  That is not the joke.  :P!

    YES!!!!!!!!  How'd ya know???  It's such a 9th grade joke.  Don says it is a 6th grade joke.  I guess boys learn more about comics than most girls at a younger age. :D! This post was edited by Merlin at February 13, 2018 2:22 PM MST

    That is a HILARIOUS joke, though!!!! Even these days, some people I tell that joke to have never heard it!!!
    Makes it even better with the new Wonder Woman movies out!!!

    I guess boys were into comic books more than girls at that age....and all the boys wanted to be Superman, but
    we all had the hots for Wonder Woman!!!......

    Indeed!  I thought Wonder Women, Linda Carter, was pretty. She wasn't one of my idols but I did like her outfit. :)

    More advanced.  I wouldn't have to speak since we could communicate by thought. 
    Of course joke telling would be out of the question since they would know the punch line  ahead of time.  You could watch a two hour movie in 5 min that would save time.

    I want them more advanced but also more advanced in terms of what we label as good qualities.

    Compassion, love, grace, healing, integrity, that kind of advanced.

    I could care less how many machines they can invent if they have no heart or soul.  If that is the case, we are all doomed.

    With my passion for learning, this is a no-brainer: more advanced. 

    Such a society would have worked out how to live more sustainably and more comfortably, and are more likely to have shed the bonds of odious superstitions and fatuous religion. This post was edited by Don Barzini at February 13, 2018 7:03 PM MST

    I hope more advanced, which would mean they were more intelligent....the intelligent part would be easy, since everyone on Earth seems to have lost ALL forms of intelligence.....generally speaking, of course.....

    More advanced. I can learn more from them or they could just keep me as a pet and I can lounge around at home all day while they work and provide food and lodging for me, their helpless little animal.
