in the article "Man of the Year Million" in 1893, describes humanity transformed into a race of gray-skinned beings, stunted and with big heads.
"The First Men in the Moon" in 1901, Selenites, or natives of the moon are described as having gray skin, big heads and big black eyes and wasp stings.
The couple's story, commonly called the Hill Abduction, and occasionally the Zeta Reticuli Incident, was that they were victims of a UFO abduction. Theirs was the first widely-publicized claim of alien abduction, adapted into the best-selling 1966 book The Interrupted Journey and a television movie.
In 1965, newspaper reports of the Betty and Barney Hill abduction brought Greys to international attention. The alleged abductees, Betty and Barney Hill, claimed to have been abducted by Greys and taken to a saucer-shaped spaceship in 1961. From a star chart reported by Betty Hill, an elementary school teacher and amateur astronomer, Marjorie Fish, concluded that the home planet of the Greys was located in the Zeta Reticuli system - they are therefore sometimes known as Zeta Reticulans.
The Roswell UFO Incident was the alleged recovery of alien debris, including corpses, from an object which crashed near Roswell, New Mexico, USA, on or about July 8, 1947. Since the late 1970s the incident has been the subject of intense controversy and the subject of conspiracy theories as to the true nature of the object which crashed. The United States military maintains that what was actually recovered was debris from an experimental high-altitude surveillance balloon belonging to a classified program named "Mogul", however many UFO proponents maintain that in fact a crashed alien craft and bodies were recovered, and that the military then engaged in a cover-up.
H. P. Lovecraft's name is synonymous with horror fiction; his writing, particularly the "Cthulhu Mythos", has influenced fiction authors worldwide, and Lovecraftian elements may be found in novels, movies, music, comic books and cartoons. Many modern horror writers, including Stephen King, Bentley Little, Joe R. Lansdale, Alan Moore and Neil Gaiman, have cited Lovecraft as one of their primary influences.

Well, I can certainly understand your take on this and it fits the idea of mass manipulation of the public conciousness through marketing and media. Still, I have to say that these ideas of what aliens look like seems to stem from something older. I'll have to try digging to find some pics, but I seem to recall cave paintings and other stuff from the far past that depicted large headed big eyed humanoids.
Course I might just be remembering stuff poorly. It's been a day...

I think Adolf Hitler reportedly saw these in his bedroom at night. They're not very tall either. The other thing I recall is that apparently some of these mask their true appearence in some way, such as with costumes as if reptilian.
Someone is apparently using some type of special effects.
yes i believe as you do that there are no greys and anyone who says there are are delusional.
Some way or another, it's special effects and mind control.

I think it is best to become more familiar with the subject matter before jumping to such rash statements. I think it could be best to do a little more research into the alien abduction phenomena (as well as "Skeptical Ed", or anyone so quickly dismissing it and a relation to Greys) before so blatantly jumping to conclusions and stating them so easily as "irrefutable fact".
Again, I am not being rude, I am just giving some advice here. This whole abduction phenomena and Grey alien relevance is something that takes more than a quick Google or wiki to research.
