Thank you Coops!

I hear a rumour that the Aliens are going to allow Union to open new offices on planets throughout the Alien owned worlds. Of course this will mean new Alien based technology to enable them to cope with the stresses of coping with close confinement with 'humans'. But, it should add another facet to Passenger Hauling.

Of course its only a rumour I heard....

Now, did the Aliens telling you this happen to have a book called "How to Serve Man" on their alien tablets?

I'm really surprised that one was never redone in the attempts to revive it. (Avoiding telling names.) I suppose everyone knows the line, so it won't be as shocking. The closest I can think to the story line is the Torchwood mini-series "Children of Earth".

The original is from the early 1950's so is even older than me.
The second usage is from TV in the early 1960's.
The one I suspect most people will get is from a fairly recent cartoon series.
