That is a strange question to ask. As far as we know, no one who is
not an Earth dweller, with the possible exception of the astronauts
aboard the ISS, is in communication with the people of Earth. If
someone not from Earth came, we would not turn him away - but if
someone claiming not to be from Earth posted here, we would be
doubtful, and suspect that he was someone from Earth just being silly.

Not _really_. It is true that there are many people in California
bereft of good sense; *that* would almost count, but you are not even
one of those.

If they are among us, I hope they intervene pretty soon. It's getting
kinda spooky around here.
