The scientists would figure that out. :D

But these changes are just bad spelling what reason did they have to change the spelling in the first place? America isnt that old that it pre-dates modern english (someone is bound to comment on me calling it modern english but this is a point of reference from old english which is ye'ol scallywag etc also thats slang so technically not old english but again i cant be arsed to do a history lesson)

P.S. Wong, it's cute that you have a little grudge against America and Americans but you really should just let it go. :roll:

If he'd still be alive, i'd send MJ, he probably would have looked the most like the aliens.

Hmmm no one? There's no one on earth that can truly embody the sentiments and views of the entire human population. Then again, when was a sweeping generalization ever a good representative of the whole?

That'd be one of the worst choices ever lol; I'd highlight our shortcomings more so over our good attributes. I'm not really a big fan of humanity as its nature is pretty typical.

How about "what" instead of "who".

I'd just give the aliens internet access and be done with it.

And the aliens would eat you and everyone would live happily ever after till they'd die, too.

Me, what kind of retarded question is this and I would like to think I'd represent the earth for a better reason than meeting other lifeforms ( plenty here and guess what, they are all the same ... ) but then again I am thinking more along the lines of ruling over earth and not so much "representing" which is a different context, guess I should create a thread for that ...
