Clandestine agents deep within Government have released to the public
secret alien communications received from deep outer space.  Roll over
Roswell.

 NEWS ABOUT "Saddam Hussein" and many other world leaders
****************************************************************************



An alien radio communication from beyond Orion is being received now at
Polyticks via the Waihopai SETI station.

Pullthru's planet is remarkably similar to ours with many of the same hopes
and problems on their desert world (their lakes and seas are shaped almost
exactly the same as our islands and continents).  

By pure chance the constellation of Orion is lensing the radio waves from 
200 000 light years away, that could not possibly have been intentionally
aimed at us.
                     

Peter Pullthru is (or rather, was) in orbit about his home world in a
decrepit former scientific station weaving an entertaining story out of the
stuff of his planet's recent history. His irregular broadcasts from a
leaking space station to his home world below have traveled light years
through the millennia.

News of our elder sister world has finally reached Earth.

There will be several other contributing writers, all residents of their
far flung world known to them (in the northern tongue) as Erthe.

It is with great pleasure that Polyticks brings to you a story from the
stars.  

There's no point in us being too excited by it and waxing eloquent about it
ad infinitum - thousands of believers have been expecting radio news from
deep space for decades.  

Now it has arrived.  

Perhaps the Government deep throats chose us because of an anxious
suspicion that the mainstream media is too deeply co-dependent on
Government.

Pullthru's story, though often funny, has real bite.  The Millennial
changes were not an altogether pleasurable experience on his world, though
many resisdents seem happy enough looking back.   Fortunately we don't need
to worry.  We can enjoy this comic guts 'n' thunder story from the safe
distance of 200 000 light years.

Why does the Government not want us to know about our sister world?
