Are you actually curious, or do you think this forum is for trivia challenges?

It's official: It's the new interstellar greeting of the universe. Don't say hi. Say 6EQUJ5. Now if we only knew how to pronounce it. But maybe pronouncing it isn't necessary, since soundwaves don't carry through interstellar space (and don't give me that thing about radiowaves). So we have to spell our greeting instead, and it is spelled 6EQUJ5. Isn't it a good thing that we all share the same alphabet?
6EQUJ5!

This thing isn't working!
