'Battle of Los Angeles' goes to sea...

What a silly idea.

If a culture can travel from star to star what on earth makes people
think they'll fight battles on even terms with us?

They'd just nuke us until we stopped twitching...

And there'd be more or less nothing we could do about it...

Unless of course, they're not _quite_ as tough as they think they are, they
may have an as yet an undiscovered weakness, (in my case it's shapely legs
and large breasts, take me to your leader). Oh well.......

Oh, Ok then ....with them, it might be a virus, or possibly, a flu bug,
maybe a head cold, or the -clap_

And not to forget, we have _Hollywood_ on our side and as evertbody knows,
they can do miracles with almost nothing by merely using special effects.

You however William, should make sure you've loaded your black powder
weapons, sharpened your edged weapons and made sure you both refletched your
arrows and keep your bow strings dry, you never know when you'll need them.

I wouldn't want to be an alien beating on your door.
