[Ads-l] "We come in peace," or, how to talk to space aliens

[W Brewer]

WB:  The most efficient, tried & true method throughout human existence has
been intermarriage & the begetting of bilingual offspring. (I know, I've
done it. And they're not aliens like my wife.) And, speaking of cribs, if
there's no SIL Bible translation, (speaking as a linguist) what's the
point? Praise the Lord, missionaries front, carry on.
