To think that the alien beings inhabiting the 55 Cancri system are just getting this.

Wow, that just....wrong. Like government propaganda from a post-apocalyptic, increased gravity (hence the whole holding on to baloons), radioactive mechanized dictatorship, ca. Soylent Green meets A Boy and his Dog where the terrible electronic brains that control mankind for it's own benefit use this to lure the unwary but young and fertile into the place where they harvest their precious enzymes.

That's not what I'm worried about. Think about it - 41 years ago. 1969. Cold war, nuclear balance of terror, Vietnam, Cambodia, student riots, Napalm, Apartheid, and if that didn't make mankind look bad enough, they'll see us crazy apes step foot on another heavenly body - you can bet that if they have a national security council or similar institution, they'll be planning the pre-emptive self-defensive strike right about now. After all, what else would you do if you saw three billion madmen starting to conquer the universe, and you know they might as well be halfway to your front door?
They'll spent the next two decades madly building and launching giant relativistic mass-bombs and constructing huge underground fortifications in preparation for our certain invasion of their homeworld, ruining their economy and starving the population until they figure out we never went past the moon. Then they'll be so pissed at us, they drink to our destruction when the missiles strike us.

Well the Star Wars Holiday Special is still nine years out from them, maybe once they get that they will turn their weapons upon themselves. If we are still alive to see it, expect their system to suddenly go nova in 2060.

"And the prices, designed for the very hungry family." WTF? That's almost as badly written as my ex's e-mails.
