Alright, I've gotta rent these movies, after watching Cowboys and Aliens. After I'm done I'll let you guys know which aliens I'd fight to the death against, which I'd surrender to, and I'd mate with.

So when did the anal probe thing get started? Is it mostly an 80s phenomenon?

Don't forget "They Live." Excellent 80's alien flick with Roddy Piper.

I guess it's easier to prepare for an invasion from without, than face the problems from within.

Have to agree. A population thats uninformed, broke, and restless is far more scary than aliens.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ***, and I'm all out of bubblegum.

It seems to have started with the reports of alien abductions in the early 1960s.

I've never decided if it could actually be true, or if it was just cases of wishful thinking, or fear of proctologists.

Anal probe?
I think that is considered to be an invasion-most personal in nature....
