Speaking of "The Thing" do you remember "Them"? You know, giant ants that made those deliciously creepy sounds? And we must not forget the great sci-fi...
Bob, I do remember "Them" and it was not bad at all for the time. The giant ants were fallout from nuclear testing I believe. I am a sci-fi movie buff. I know...

This is a rant, but I don't know if finding life in the solar system is such a good thing. Then man can plan on moving to another friendly planet and ruin it,...
