I understand that Priority one: What do they want? and Where are they from? is what they want to know about aliens from other planets who...arrive here. I thought everyone is looking for water? Aliens from other plantes come here and you ask... "What do you want?" and they say, "We're looking for water, what the fuck do you're looking for???" and NASA tells them, "We're looking for life on other planets." and the aliens respond, "Well, you fuckin found it, now where is your fuckin water???" NASA seys, "Where are you from?" Aliens: "WHAT FUCKIN BUSINESS IS IT OF YOURS, MOTHERFUCKER????"

They want to be Surfers, but they dont fit the surfboards, silly fools.

Trouble is, there's a LOT of water in the universe. Now, you could have life (on Titan, maybe?) that isn't based on wat4er. But then they wouldn't need it. It's kind of like the bit in _Triplanetary_ where the Nevians (who have plenty of water) go exploring, looking for iron, resorting even to draining the hemoglobin from human bodies. There's a LOT of iron in the universe; I understand it's the final product of a lot of nuclear reactions. It's as silly as "Mars Needs Women." "But now, wait just a bit, let's see, this isn't it, for you haven't provided a maiden, Who is both good and pure, yet with sexy allure, and with not many clothes overladen. She is part of the crew, and so she's captured too, and is ogled by foes who are lustful; There's desire in each eye, and there's good reason why, for of beauty our girl has a bustful. Just the same, you go fast till this section is past, so the readers won't raise any ruction On recalling the foe are all reptiles, and so take no interest in human seduction." -- Isaac Asimov >> >> >> NASA seys, "Where are you from?" >> >> >> Aliens: "WHAT FUCKIN BUSINESS IS IT OF YOURS, MOTHERFUCKER????" >> > >Aliens speak old english from the 50's, they learned it by watching our >TV signals from 66 light years away.
