Okay, so why didn't they just read a biology book and go from there? At
the most, they might have to nab a specimen or two of some creature (not
necessarily a human) to study. Besides, didn't they already get Elvis?
Although, there is some evidence for this cross-breeding stuff. The next
time you see James Carville on television, compare him to the current
pop-culture alien image. Pretty close resemblance. If you added a couple
of antennae, you'd be right on the money. That ought to give the
paranoiacs out there something to worry about.
