Aliens! Ooh... Ahhh...

Set your tivos for later tonight (Monday, May 30) to National Geographic Channel, 9PM PT/ET! They are running a cool looking special called "Extraterrestrials." See the pics here:

It's good to know that the big brain guys are earning their money. Is it too much to hope that they justify the appearance of the plants and critters they had fun generating on their computers with *actual science*? Personally, I had imagined that alien life, and very possibly some life here on earth, was simply too far outside the limited range of our senses to realize it was there. One of the first stories I wrote as a kid was about people walking right through these other creatures as they walked right through us. We lived in different dimensions and could not see each other even though we were both looking. Anyone wanna buy the movie rights? National Geographic, maybe..?
