Those troublesome Grays are always getting drunk and doing stuff like this. We Vegans are outraged by the very thought... I'm proficient in conversational Gray, and this is just the kind of graffiti they leave on our planet. It looks like bragging about commiting a crime of some kind... roughly, the culprit disguised itself as a human, told some humans that your technology is too primitive to reach your moon (It is, in fact, exceptional for a spicies at your evolutionary level) ... the humans believed it... a human punched the culprit... and the rest is cursing at this human. This makes no sense to me. Perhaps some of you comprehend? Well, BA, it depends on what you mean by aliens. Those troublesome Grays are always getting drunk and doing stuff like this.

Bush Presidential Library is to preserve an exact copy of this message when it was written as George W.'s intended concession speech in the 2000 election.
