24 splicing techniques. Therefore, a species advanced enough to reach earth needs only to take a few cell samples of the local flora and fauna of interest, to gain a total knowledge of it's genetic makeup and capabilities. 5. No credible evidence (such evidence would have to be of such a nature as to preclude any wo A fe a Lat Le tmnt wale 8 a: Pee other conclusion) has ever emerged from the observation of UFO's to indicate any alien activity. Given the above, can a self consistent picture be derived that both satisfies the body of evidence and at the same time provide credible answers to the critics objection. The answer is yes. However, this proposed solution may appear to make the earth a NEXUS for the local interstellar activity. Reptoids It is possible, given the time span that life has existed on earth, that other terrestrial intelligent technological species have evolved. If this had occurred one of the most probable candidate species would be a form of theropod. The reasoning for this includes: 1. This order of animal is thought to have existed in some form on the earth for the last 240 wn million years 2. Most theropods were either omnivorous or carnivorous and their current living descendants (birds) still follow this pattern. The forces of evolution tend towards intelligence in predatory animals. It has been speculated that this is due to fact that to survive as a predator the animal must be able to "outsmart" it's prey. If the observed reptoids UFO occupants are in fact descendants of theropods, then several key objection listed above (specifically 2 and 3) are immediately resolved. these include: 1. They would naturally be from a local star system since there point of origin is the earth. 2. They would know of earth's existence, location and importance to their history. 3. They would be biologically compatible with terrestrial DNA. 4. They would by definition have the technology required to travel the interstellar distances involved. 5. There physiological makeup and appearance would be consistent with observations. 6. There would probably be a sufficient psychological drive to make the effort to maintain contact with the home-world. This would mean that this particular species must have an unbroken civilized history of at least 65 million years if one assumes that this species origin predates the cretaceous extinctions. One can only speculate as to the technological developments that an intelligent species could develop in this time span, however, there technology would be limited by both physiological limitations (brain capacity and reasoning ability) and the limitation of nature itself. Grays From the description of the observed behavior and appearance of the species commonly called the "grays" it is probable that this species is a subservient race in the service of some master (the reptoids?). It is also likely that this race was specifically bred to perform specific tasks with the culture. In this fashion the grays may well be biologically engineered robots "biots". Following this reasoning, it would be desirable to build into these biots specific limitations in both mental and physical capacities which would limit any autonomous capabilities, thus minimizing the possibility of "revolts". One such limitation would likely be autonomous reproduction. If reproduction were dependent on the master species, the grays very existence would inherently controlled by these masters. Another likely area to exert control is to limit the biot ability to obtain sustenance. If key nutrients were only available at specifically designed feeding stations the biots servitude is further assured. To accomplish this goal, it is likely that such biots would not have a functional digestive system. Nourishment would be
