Highly entertaining!
As we all know the Americans (god bless them), have the best educated citizens in the (or is that "their") world. Let us not forget, your leader has the intelligence of a brussels sprout (no pun intended honest), and a disturbing percentile of the populace cant even find America on a map of the world.
Get real, there is a reason people hate Americans, and its this sort of bloody minded attitude toward "inferior" people that's driving you out of the real world.
Well now let me see. Yes you could be right, in fact i find it hard to believe that at sometime, somewhere, other life may have/may yet exist.
Your calculation assumes that they have actually managed to find us, and i think the chances of that approach zero.
Jesus, futurama has some of the best animation I have ever seen in a regular animation feature, the characters are piss funny.
Bender is great, Bender is great!
Grrr
Lets face it, most of the people in this world are not gifted with even a remote understanding of how it works, its easier to pin your understanding on something up there in the sky (be that an idea or an entity of some kind).
Mankind has been doing this since the dawn of time, its only in recent times that a few bright individuals have turned up saying "well actually thats a bit bollocks really, and heres why", sadly these types are normally burned at the stake (in one way or another).
Science has a process that it uses to prove/disprove theory, this is somewhat different from the et/psi/mole at the bottom of my garden theorists. Sure it might be flawed, or open to abuse, but at least it exists.
I dont think that any rational person can seriously believe that aliens have been somehow touching down on earth for the last 50 years, in america, without the whole world actually being aware of it (after all they are that interesting, or maybe the aliens have the same view of the world as americans, i.e. that they are the centre of it).
The government of the united states is probably in no hurry to dispell the rumours of a cover up as 1. There is nothing to cover up, and 2. Its far more fun to let people rabbit on about ET, so long as it covers up what you are really up to.

Yes it is actually, do the math.
