I gather he's a pretty young kid. I'm surprised my own son didn't flip out at that but I think he has become hardened in the last year or so and only occasionally has that kind of fear anymore. I don't know whether to be happy or sad about that. >I found the whole thing > pretty disturbing.

I know what you mean - the kid was kind of like Data Jr. I got this feeling that they had come up with this pretty good idea for a story, but didn't know how to end it, so they came up with this alien thing after a thousand years pass by with the kid just staring at this mother figure/blue fairy (what about rust and so on? yeesh!) (Who was "telling" the story? I gather it was one of the aliens - but why? and for whom? ______________________________________________________________________ File your taxes online! http://taxes.yahoo.ca
