From Wikipedia:
"World Contact Day was first declared in March 1953 by an organization
called the International Flying Saucer Bureau, as a day on which all
IFSB members would attempt to send a telepathic message into space."

Speaking of telepathy, does anyone know of SF prior to "Slan" by van Vogt
(1940) in which telepathy is a plot element?
Rudyard Kipling's _Wireless_ (1902).
