I was just wondering something. Prof X couldn't contact Lilandra, thus could not send a warning about Vulcan. Isn't there some other means of contacting space beings? For instance, after the whole Scottpocalypse thing, Scott was able to contact Corsair for some father-son time. So, could they just have contacted Corsair or, was the thing Prof X was using the same device used to contact Corsair? Please feel free to call me a knitpicker if that is what I'm doing here.

I imagine since Reed is part of the illuminati. Xavier could have gone to the Baxter Building and done this.
I cant answer about the Corsair thing..I really dont get that involved with the little things or I could punch holes in a lot pf plot lines and drive myself crazy. I save my wrath for when I believe a character is being miswrote? (is that a word?)

PINK FLOYD LYRICS
"Comfortably Numb"
Hello,
Is there anybody in there
Just nod if you can hear me
Is there anyone at home
Come on now
I hear you're feeling down
I can ease your pain
And get you on your feet again
Relax
I'll need some information first
Just the basic facts
Can you show me where it hurts
There is no pain, you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands felt just like two balloons
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can't explain, you would not understand
This is not how I am
I have become comfortably numb
O.K.
Just a little pin prick
There'll be no more aaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go.
There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship smoke on the horizon
You are only coming through in waves
Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When I was a child
I caught a fleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye
I turned to look but it was gone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown
The dream is gone
And I have become
Comfortably numb.

I went to this hill billy highschool and almost got beat up by a bunch of inbreeding hicks who wanted to kick my ass because I didn't know who Pink floyd was.

Ha, well, I would have gotten a beating as well because I was very confused.

I was like who? We don't listen to that honky crap at home. Ooh the girls got angry, started taking out their teeth, and pullin back the three strands of hair they had on their head, they was ready to rumble :p (which I knew who they we're, my papi being white and all)

"We don't need no communication"
I thought Lilandra (and the rest of the Shiar) don't talk to Professor X anymore? :confused:

You have insulted some of my classmates. I no longer want to see you naked, but I will if you walk in front of me.

You're not a knitpicker. It's the little stuff like that that drives me crazy. Of course there is a much easier way to contact Lilandra, but if they used it then there wouldn't be a 12-issue story line.

Professor is trying to contact Lilandra in the first issue. That machine he and hank sitting around, was trying to transmit a message to lilandra, but they said it wasnt going thru.

Yes, I know that. I was just wondering if that was the only means ever used to communicate to space.

Besides telepathy? Yeah.:( Thats why Xavier wanted him and Rachel to work with Cerebra for a while, im guessing. To see if together they could contact Lilandra.

Well, I don't think it is a big thing. I was just wondering if they ever used anthing else in the comics other than the device that was being used by Prof X and Beast. I mean, Scott could have easily used the same device to contact Corsair. They never really showed how he got in contact with him.

The Shi'Ar also kinda refuse to communicate with Xavier since Cassie Nova drove Lilandra mad.

It could that they just aren't taking any communications from Earth. Wasn't the device working at Xavier's end? Maybe they call blocked us here.

Maybe they have the call thingie where it shows the number that's calling and are like, I'm not answering it, it's a bill collector...God, I'm such a tard for forgetting what that's called.
edit..Caller I.D. Okay, I'm gonna shut up now.
