Man, she could have at least added the "leave us alone" part like I suggested

I'm fighting the temptation to send a snarky email saying "It's ok. We understand that being involved in a First Contact with an alien race is a mind wracking process, and we know you will come up with an excuse/ cover story soon enough."

I excel in my ability to be a sarcastic so and so.

What gets me is how *effective* these things can be sometimes.

Do it. Let us know if they reply.

So, if nothing else, some entertainment I found while browsing sites. Some of the LARPers out there are having a field day:

Reread my post.

Agreed just because you have similiar capabilities doesn’t mean that they are all able to do the same thing at the same time.

I've been following this story with avid interest.

I take it there's been nothing new? No explanations?

This truly weird.

I would probably get a manners violation if I were to say you're a condescending prick in every thread you post in. That wouldn't be an attack. It would be clarifying why it is no one enjoys commentary with you. You have a overstated opinion of yourself in an Internet message forum and you bring no value to the topics.

So I won't say that directly. Just thinking out loud here.

Not sure that’s needed let’s keep this thread on topic and not let it devolve into a fecal matter tossing contest.

Sorry I was replying post edit when it just seemed like a outlast I apologize now let’s try to play nice children.

I probably shouldn't. Or, I'll wait till the 3rd round of "this emergency is ongoing and is still going on".

By then the filters will be in place fire it off while it still might get seen.

Oh I thought about emailing her. I probably wouldn't be able to be civil at this point, and the fbi would likely be at my house the next day. So I'll keep my peace

"Mom and dad went to Sunspot, NM. All I got was this lousy press release"

I got it.... someone there was killed by a Sonic weapon

a reply to: BigDave-AR

Alright.. I expect either absolutely nothing, or a response that'll be pure gold. Or the MiB showing up to smack me around.

No closure of the distribution point in Cloudcroft, NM though. That’s a pretty big gap in the theory.
