          On first pass, did not read that last word correctly.

      Assuming communications travelled at light-speed, yes, “insane” is a word.

      You could hold a conversation over a dozen generations.

        It gets interesting if one, or both, sides invent a stasis system, so you don’t have one multi-generational, but probably multi subject, conversation, but each “generation” having a conversation like that, and going in to stasis while waiting for a response. People would have to find a way to communicate between generations as well as with the aliens.

        If your thinking of the reference I think you are it was ally mcbeal which they referred to as “single female lawyer”…

          They also watched Friends, but as we all know, it sucks, because Ross, the largest Friend, does not simply eat the other Friends.
