New Scientist - Alien SMS competition. Winning entries?
In the 13th Jan edition, they gave the 10 runners up to the competition: what SMS would an alien send home soon after arriving on our planet. No more than 160 characters of course.
These were hilarious. Does anyone know what the winning entries were? (published the week before)
