Whenever I see "it's" (the contraction for "it is") confused with "its" (meaning "belonging to it"), I immediately lose 50% of my interest in anything further the writer has to say.

I figger if aliens are gonna contact us they'll do so via Art Bell, Pat Robertson, and/or the yacking black lady with her pay site or some other important earthling and said person in turn will inform us, so I ain't gonna get overly excited about this report.
