That reminds me of a science fiction novel I read years ago, "The Mote
in God's Eye," by David Niven and Jerry Pournelli. It's been years
since I've read it; but, it seems to me that that in the novel the
human race encounters another life form that was similar to what
you've described.


*Larry Niven*...David Niven was the absolutely wonderful English actor.
Jerry Pournelle, not Pournelli.

Correction duly noted. (I'm writing these notes on the fly. And David
Niven was a great actor. I liked his role in "The Guns of Navarone."
Did I spell that right?) (He also had a role in a movie, as a
minister, with Cary Grant as an ange that I enjoyedl. Don't recall
the title.) I also read "Footfall" and "Lucifer's Hammer" by the same
duo, both good reads.
