You don't need to worry about the radio wave propagation, just wait for the GPS device to lock on and start querying its time.
Much of the effort of the GPS device is in synchronizing its clock with the GPS clocks, resulting in probably less than 1 microsecond of error.
Earth does have the most liquid water. The rings of Saturn and the moons of the outer solar system have water ice that's easier to reach from space. So the rings of Saturn would vanish if our solar system already had harvesters who wanted water.
However, if they're after water, there's ten times more water in our lithosphere than in our oceans, so water would be another reason to move our rocks back into space.
If they need resources, they don't need to talk to us. They can be out there stealing our asteroids without our bothering them until we're out there also. A single asteroid has more metals than we can mine here.
Actually, they'd probably find the metals under our crust to be useful. So they should put some asteroids together and start chipping (splashing) pieces off the planets until they've broken them back down into separate rocks. The thin film over the surface of our planet won't be any bother, really.
Melted ash is not liquid glass like water is. It sticks differently to the metal and ceramic engine components, there's both liquid and solid pieces (it's not evenly-heated pure glass), clumps form inside the engine, the melt mixes with cooler bypass air.. ick. The engines are designed to deal with a fair amount of water, less hail, and less goose. If engine ash levels have been studied, nobody has reported that, and any such researchers could have gotten a lot of TV airtime recently.

So the metal can bend, but goes back to its original shape. So the building can spring back to its original shape after the walls flop down and squish you. Yup, that's good for the building.

Hey, this is a big f***ing deal.
That should be "Metric or New Republic football fields."

You also have to report if you are a slave, so they can compare current to historical personhood.
If you are a slave, just mark the "Slave" checkbox.
