Alien Knowledge


Mrs May is to meet Donald Trump shortly after his inauguration. Will he Tweet that is isn't really Mrs May, but an alien in a Mrs May suit?

I often wonder whether our tendency to revere ancient knowledge (even though much of it is complete bunk) is due to the fact we had a Dark Age when a lot of knowledge was lost, and thus when the lost knowledge came to light it was indeed perceived as venerable compared to what was then known.
