It is quite amazing how many have gotten back to me with their own observations on the possibility of our ferrets being alien life-forms; and of the many attempts to use computers to comminicate with possibly other galatic beings. Many computers have been taken out of service by ferrets, and it is possible that the ferrets perceive computers to be dangerous commincating devices for we humans who might be attempting to thwart their plans, or communicate ourselves with other planets and thereby discover their secret origins. Whatever, strict security precautions should be used! Do not, I repeat, Do not let your ferrets know that we are on to them! Our lives, not to mention our shoes and socks, could be in danger. Good grief - what would happen to global communication if they find out and they take out all the computers! Cheers, Meg [Posted in FML issue 1736]
