(10,618 posts)They're just here to collect specimens for their zoos back home. They may be busier than usual in the few years leading up to final global warming and extinction of all life on the planet, but they won't bother to make contact.
Although I can imagine they might wait till after we've destroyed the planet and then use their advanced geoengineering to fix it up for themselves as a vacation spot. It would be a darn shame to see Disneyland go to waste.

(111,255 posts)we will never hear about it. They don't want to queer the sweet deal they have using earth-centric religions to control the masses.
Not only that, but communication will likely be impossible. They're very unlikely to be bipedal apes who communicate with sound waves in the same frequency.

(24,411 posts)I'll Stay clear of basements and head for brownstones in Boston (I learned that from War of the Words, Tom Cruise version).
I won't go into the subway or high-rise buildings (I learned that from Cloverfield).
I will quickly remove any alien that attaches itself to my face (I learned that from Alien, Aliens and Aliens3).
I will always have Reese's Pieces with me (Great tip from ET: The Extraterrestrial)
I will avoid Los Angeles (Thank you, Battle Los Angeles)
I will listen to Wilford Brimley (Excellent info gleaned from Cocoon)
What the hell? (Learned that from Prometheus)
I'll smoke if I got 'em (Spaceballs)

(8,317 posts)My personal opinion?
If they're here, they're not the smartest beings in the universe.
If they aren't, they are.
Why put yourself in the middle of all this? That would be the hieght of stupidity.
These folks are waiting for the rapture, by a different name and vehicle.

(602 posts)versus all the speculative and unproven claims, among them:
1) alien abductions
2) daily videos of ufo's
3) documented proof of bigfoot
4) actual photos of Lockness monster
3) xrays of Romney's beating heart
All joking aside, I don't know about the next 5 months or how you come up with that number, but I am pretty sure that there have been ongoing contacts between "aliens" and humans for some time. Hopefully, they'll teach us cold fusion technologies and how to innoculate people against stupidity and hatred.

I would have preferred to be anally probed by little green men.

(10,895 posts)The idea seems to run against the odds, but contact would unite the human race like no other event in history.
For that reason alone, I hope it happens sooner rather than later. We need some uniting right now...
