| Nov 14, 2014 at 19:28 | comment | added | stonemetal | Really? Not two seconds to check wikipedia? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_alien H.G. Wells used them several times in different capacities. First as what humans evolved into then as aliens. They even made an appearance in the original war of the worlds. | |

| Nov 14, 2014 at 2:07 | comment | added | keshlam | It's worth noting that the behavior of the aliens as described by abductees pretty closely follows the behavior of the Fey Folk as described by traditional tales, with a think veneer of science slapped on it. Which I'm sure convinces the believers that that the elves were aliens, but which convinces most of us that aliens are just the modern version of blaming everything on the unseelie. | |
