30th anniversary of aliens taking the airways

On November 26, 1977 Independent Television News was interrupted by a message from a voice claiming to be an alien named Vrillion with a message about the destiny of the human race.

The message lasted six minutes and its source was never found

Here is the wikipedia article
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vrillon

And the actual broadcast on youtube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thfL9hZW3uM

It's actually pretty creepy until he mentions "The Age of Aquarius"

A little research reveals the broadcast has since become big with New Age types who think they can commune with celestial beings

    first, airwaves

    second, this is retarded

    if you want to hear about some new age stuff that is actually true and awesome, read jon ronson's the men who stare at goats which documents how, among other things, guy savelli killed a goat with his mind

    Definitely seems strange, the voice was very calm and stern, something you wouldn't suspect of hackers making a joke. Also some heavy voice modulation in there.

    Somewhere, some kids are getting told a pretty cool story about their father
