MODEL3   I believe ETs have visited the earth before.

Script

Nora: Hey, what’s this picture of yours? It looks like a flying saucer.

Chris: It is. I was visited by aliens last week and this is a picture of their spacecraft.

Nora: When I look closer, it resembles a liver Frisbee 1.

Chris: But it could have been aliens. I believe ETs have visited the earth before. What do you think?

Nora: It would be hard to believe otherwise. Projects like the pyramids are difficult to explain away, given the level of technology that was available at the time

Chris: That’s for sure. They are mysterious.

Nora: When you consider all those “impossibilities, it’s tempting 2 to infer that some highly advanced civilization assisted humans in their construction.

Chris: Think about this: if you were abducted 3 by aliens and taken up to their spaceship or something …well…

Nora: What do you mean?

Chris: I mean, who would believe you? You’d go nuts telling everyone: “It’s true! I was abducted by aliens!”

Nora: And everyone would think you were crazy, or just making up a story to get attention.

Chris: From what I understand, sometimes these people do go crazy, trying to convince people about their experiences.

Nora: I believe that in some cases they offer pretty good evidence.

Chris: So, take a closer look at this picture. Do you still think it’s a Frisbee?
