I dunno if this is really the forum for this but SETI kind of falls into the "search for truth" category so there.
I was browsing through SETIathome's website last night and realized that the band of sky being scanned is mostly out of the plane of the galaxy. In fact it seems to be focused on the regions of the sky least likely to produce successful results.
It seems to me we should be looking toward the galactic core, I would think that would be the place for advanced civilizations to be. The one place in the galaxy that generates more usable energy than any other, that's where star formation occurred first and mostest, I'd think if there's any really advanced alien life the Big Boys must hang out there, at Galactic Central Downtown. We're way out on the fringe, in the middle of absolutely nowhere.
Has there ever been a real concerted effort to search the galactic core for radio signals, or other anomalous electromagnetic energy signatures or anything else that could result from activity by extremely powerful civilizations?
