   Quote for the day:
        
        "We know they're extremely advanced technologically,
         which suggests, very rightfully so, that they're peaceful.
         I suspect they have more to fear from us, than we from them."

                -- Professor Donald Kessler (Pierce Brosnan)
                   "Mars Attacks!" (Warner Bros.; 1996)
