garigue,

Any intelligent civilization would have either evolved heliography or
telegraphy
for specific needs. A magic-based civilization would have evolved
heliography,
a technology-based civilization would have evolved telegraphy.

You could either:
1) Think of it as a SETI exercise. CW would carry far better over
interstellar distance
on microwave frequencies than voice, RTTY, or image.

2) Just let the rest of us have some clean, healthy fun. Play is
healthy for the soul.

The Eternal Squire

You don't want the aliens to think we're idiots, do you?
