Boffins offer explanation for meteorite sickness Relax: the aliens aren't using poisonous space rocks to soften us up in advance of an invasion, after all. Last week, you may recall, a meteorite fell in Peru. Locals who were first on the scene reported feeling ill immediately after contact with the space rock, with symptoms including headaches and nausea. Speculation began …
So, this Luisa Macedo. Did she happen to display any emotion at all? She wasn't outside pointing at people and wailing at the top of her lungs, was she? Did she, by any chance, get spotted loading a bunch of what appears to be giant pea pods into the boot of a military vehicle?

Dont get me wrong - I'd love Aliens to be present - they might whip the world into some decent activity - other than HDTV and Carbon sodding Footprints!

What's that coming over the hill?
Is it a monster?
Errr... no, looks like a black helicopter.
I'd better go now....
Dont worry guys the invasion wont last.
The sherriff will try and get everyone to dive into a lake during a storm, in Florida
and then the invasion will end on a cliff hanger and we wont get to find out what happens because some beauracratic Alien, holding the purse strings will say the INVASION is too expensive and cancel it.
