Whil, that's a cute story that has taken on a life of its own.  I was with Tom 
at MIT in 1935 when he supposedly made that remark and I can tell you that he 
did not say that.  What he said was, "I don't think there is enough room on the 
planet for more than 4 or 5 of these things."

Of course a few years later, the aliens came with transistors and integrated 
circuits and in no-time flat, miniaturization made the planet big enough for 
many, many, many, many more of "these things."  But that is a different story.
