Wouldn't america be better off if all the textbooks had aliens in them to keep it interesting? - Beryllium Feb 12, 10:38
it's one thing to know it happened, it's quite another to be willing to explore the very real implications of it. -- nm - znufrii Feb 12, 10:38 6
- Because when I think "very real", I think "aliens with valuable weapons tech hiding in a slum". -- nm - TFox Feb 12, 10:40 3
  - The aliens that survived were the lower caste, and they were pretty dumb and subjugated. - Beryllium Feb 12, 10:42

    - I quite enjoyed District 9. Fourth best sci-fi movie of the year! -- nm - TFox Feb 12, 10:41
- I guess I didn't feel they handled the implications as well as others seem to think they did. - Will Hunting Feb 12, 10:39 1
  - that's a fair criticism. - znufrii Feb 12, 10:42
