I've always had a major problem with this idea overall. There is literally no natural resource on Earth except for life that isn't exponentially more readily available from lifeless rocks and gas balls elsewhere. The idea of invading Earth for it's resources is absurd when there's a billion times more of whatever it is your alien race needs just floating in the Oort cloud. If you've figured out how to cross the interstellar voids on any reasonable time scale, surely you've also sussed that out. --- The SBA has closed for business, we thank you for your patronage Assassins. ~there's always free cheese in a mousetrap. <cite>WhiskeyDisk posted [p:936073752] in Doesn'...
