They're denying that they got a signal, but there's no explaination as to what it really was. So was it a signal from some natural source, or was the whole story completely made up, or what?
Since the Roswell incident there have been numerous TV shows and movies where the theme involved some "the general public was not ready for this knowledge". Maybe, just maybe, all of those shows are being secretly funded by the government in order to flood us with the idea that "the general public was not ready for this knowledge" so that we will be ready when they come out and actually say it.

Well, I don't know how much of these secret government conspiracy stories are just made up.
There are so many different things that are supposedly covered up by the government that the public is not ready for...

- the secret base at Area 51 where aliens and humans are living together and building flying saucers
- the aliens are mutilating cattle, abducting humans for biological experiments, and creating human-alien hybrids
- they have the technology to turn a destroyer invisible, teleport it, and also travel through time.
- there is a secret program that uses psychic 'remove viewers' to spy on distant locations
- there are 'zero-point energy' devices that can generate unlimited energy from space itself
- the moon landing was faked
- there are secret devices that can influence people's minds and make them sick from a distance

'It's not Area 51 I'm worried about, it's Area's 1 to 50.'

Got that off www.coolsig.com along with my current sig.

- the secret base at Area 51 where aliens and humans are living together and building flying saucers

and developing the next Version of WINXP...


- the aliens are mutilating cattle, abducting humans for biological experiments, and creating human-alien hybrids

and puting them in the bush presidential campaign (did you see the weird clothes the people were using in the republican convention?)


- they have the technology to turn a destroyer invisible, teleport it, and also travel through time.

and are considering selling the tech to Disney...


- there is a secret program that uses psychic 'remove viewers' to spy on distant locations

the latest development of this project is a strange gadget called "webcam" that allow non-psychic people to do the same...


- there are 'zero-point energy' devices that can generate unlimited energy from space itself

using the same principle they created a strage beverage also know as "energetic drinks"...


- the moon landing was faked

and the location used to film is in New Zealand, in the same place the did LOTR...


- there are secret devices that can influence people's minds and make them sick from a distance

also know as "soap operas"...

Hahaha... ... ... OUCH!!
Damn, fell out of my chair. Good thing I landed on my head.

Way to go Makinus!! But I'm afraid you got point two wrong. The ultimate Human-Alien hybrid is not for the Bush presidential campaign. Every single being on Earth that watches the tele is going to be brainwashed and used for some sort of evil scheme. They're going to overthrow the govenments of the world and of course take over the whole operation. Yes, ladies and gentlemen we're talking about Oprah!!!

*Spooky music in the background*

Edit: Okay, I just noticed that Makinus is a lawyer. Hmm... I must point out that everything in this post is... ehh... fictional. Yeah. I must get myself of the hook while I can. You don't know if they heard me.

For all we know, we could all be controlled by a load of large powerful machines using us like batteries...

Not sure where I got that from
