"If they’re out there, they’re out there, and if they have this kind of technology, then they could turn us into a charcoal briquette," Burchett said. "And if they can travel light years or at the speeds that we’ve seen, and physics as we know it, fly underwater, don't show a heat trail, things like...

You think that’s creepy? Check out this weird creature I spotted roaming the New England woods last fall.

Ahh, a Jimi Hendrix reference: "1983, a Merman I Should Turn to be" from Electric Ladyland. Sweet.
