Forget about ancient traces of water on Mars. There's a little white bunny up there.
And stone tools.
And dinosaur fossils.
Plants, art, even letters of the alphabet.
While NASA scientists pore over the latest Red Planet images for shreds of evidence that it might have supported algae or pond scum, thousands of earnest civilians are scanning the same pictures and pointing out all sorts of things the professionals missed or have not acknowledged.

Filer and his associates at MUFON (Mutual UFO Network) believe these are the creations of intelligent beings. He has been trying to tell NASA, without success. Filer needs to get his prescription refilled.
If NASA found proof of life on another planet, the whole agency would be shouting it from the rooftops and hauling it before Congress at the next budget planning meeting. Guaran-freakin'-teed.

I saw a fossilized newspaper fragment.... there was a bit of clear writing...:
Government passes law to move all humans to third planet...
but NASA told me it was nothing more than a lighting effect.... they said the "words" were nothing more than a coincidence and that they were a couple of centimeters high at most...

LOL. It is now some kind of "cover-up" for NASA to provide all of this pictorial evidence to prove a "cover-up". I love conspiracy theories.

Its all Bush's fault.
Kerry demands bush stop stonewalling about mars.
Kerry announces he will be sending his own exploratory mission.

Kerry announces he will be sending his own exploratory mission. Will they be illegal aliens?

No kidding.
The part that knocks me out is where this guy claims fossil evidence of a squid.
A SQUID? Since when did they have skeletons? Hell, we can't even dig up a full shark fossil apart from its jaws and teeth due to their cartilaginous endoskeletal makeup. And we're supposed to believe this schmuck can ID Martian squid??

Never before have earthlings had such sharp pictures from another world, or such easy access to chat rooms, Web sites and virtual communities to discuss the fossils, tools, letters and the bunny. Especially the bunny. The law of unintended consequences strikes again!
