This thread is a riot!

I have to know, long-gone, did you post this stuff for entertainment purposes only or do you actually believe it? And what is it about gold, exactly, that sucks in the Y2K/black helicopter crowd. No wonder gold gets no respect.

One of my personal favorite urban legends is the one about alien abduction. Did you know that a majority of Americans believe in "aliens" and a sizable minority believe that over the last 40 years as many as 5 million Americans have been abducted by aliens? (every one of whom has been lovingly tucked up back in their warm, cosy beds by the evil aliens once they have completed their various nasty sado-sexual procedures).

Well, here's the kicker on this one. Assuming that each alien craft can abduct five Americans per night (and therefore carries maybe five to ten, ahem, alien medical personnel in addition to the crew of say, three, and the landing party of, say four), that means that a fleet of 68 alien ships crewed by as many as 1,150 aliens has been operating nightly in US airspace for 40 years without a single accident (and without one single alien infantryman dropping his alien infantry flashlight or one single alien medical technician leaving his dastardly alien sado-sexual probing device where he shouldn't have). This tickles my funny bone.

German troops implementing martial law in America? Words fail me.
