The top questions which people would like to ask the aliens when they
come, from the Feedback column in New Scientist (21/28 Dec 1996) which
held a competion to identify these important issues.

Why the long face?

Before we shake hands is your galaxy matter or antimatter?

Did you make that face on Mars? .....Oh you thought it was us?

Do you really want to be taken to our leader, or would you rather go to
the pub?

Did your insurance premiums go up after the Roswell incident?

Before you arrived on Earth, did you think it was populated by little
green men?

So you got rid of all the bacteria on your world by sending them to
Earth on a meteorite, did you?

Have your science fiction writers come up with anything resembling human
beings?

Have you been abducted by aliens?

Could you make a few corrections to my copy of a Brief History of Time?

Do you have mysterious crop circles on your planet?

The suspense is killing me. Can I look in your time machine and see if
I've won in Feedback's Christmas competion?

Have you given your home planet a really dull name as well?

So you've been watching our television? Please let me explain....

How did it feel when you realised they had taken off without you?

How much did the Viking lander fetch at the martian antiques fair?

If we tell you what we know about quantum theory, Neo-Darwinism, chaos,
relativity and superconductors, will you tell us about good goverment,
cooperation, friendship, peace and personal hygiene?

Is it true that the rest of the universe tells Homo Sapiens jokes?

Didn't you think the Voyager II greeting plaque was a little risque?

Did you actually mean to come here?
