[From Rick Marken (941105.1900)]

It's awfully quiet out there, Scotty. Either the aliens are preparing  
a barrage of verbal rationalizations or they actually have a life.  
Either way, I think I will have to declare a Condition Red. The aliens  
will either unleash the most intense barrage of verbal rationalizations  
we have ever seen or they will take the tack of other Ancient Alien  
Civilizations with which we have had contact (such as motor control  
theorists) and cut our communication links completely.

Set phasors to stun.

Or, better yet, don't.
