1. What? Why is there no ZERO response?
> How many space aliens are currently living on Earth?

I looked myself, I couldn't believe it. There is no ZERO or OTHER choice. We have to accept, as a premise, that space aliens are here.

And if they are, why would there be, at most, 10k? Why not 100k? Or 6 Billion?

I'm inclined to think humans are space aliens. We came to this planet as refugees on a colony ship, killed off the indiginous higher primates (Neanderthals, Australopithicus, etc.) in the process of building a starter civilization (Atlantis?), which then annihilated itself some 30000 years ago. We're already living in post-apocalyptic society, which is why we're all so fucked up.

But CNN doesn't poll for that, so I'm SOL.
