I concur wholeheartedly. Not the bit about immolating y'bum tho'.
We probably should remember that NS refererred to a shell as opposed to the volume of a sphere, the thickness of the shell, ignoring diffusion and other scattering effects (interstellar medium etc.) only being as "thick" as the "active" spectrum broadcast lifetime of the emmitting civilisation.
