RE: How I discovered my neighbour was an alien from outer-space

in #aliens7 years ago

I had to drink 15 beers before going in the house to try to make me more courageous. Obviously I was a little woozy when the aliens scared the shit out of me, so I didn’t get all the details. Most likely you are right. This is probably a cooperation between aliens and government that is being kept secret. Every government must want the knowledge aliens will bring them, so they are not going to share it.

It's strange that noone here quoted the "War of the Worlds" effect, when H.G. Wells radio program caused a mass panic attack. Mass behaviour is fascinating.

I read War of the Worlds 45 years ago. I also read about the Mass hysteria when the radio show ran it as if it were for real.

Same thing happened when Radio 1 invented a fictitious “free concert” “somewhere in London”. All roads clogged up as thousands headed in their cars to the suspected location of Hyde Park. That would have been the early 70’s. They were forced by the police to reveal it was a hoax.

Studying collective behavior is interesting because, under certain conditions, people start to behave like one single organism. It's almost like a physical phenomenon like the passage from a state of the matter to another. From now onward, you'll be our steemian Orson Welles @swissclive (and my respect for drinking 15 beer)!
