Frank Drake's 80th birthday

[space oddity]

Frank Drake of the Drake equation fame (SETI) turns 80 0n May 28th (nothing like a bit of trivia.) Dare I say, it would be befitting if there was a birthday greeting from ET:P. Any money, he will be bombarded with emails and letters "sent" from exotic locations.
