Cute Wordplay - Gnorts!
A bunch of people are convinced that the appropriate greeting when
meeting a space alien is "Gnorts."
Why "Gnorts", you ask?
It simple. In the heavily-orchestrated, gov't-disinformation-rich Apollo
Moon landing program, what was the name the gov't used to refer to the
first man who landed on the Moon?
"Neil Armstrong."
Yeah, right, as if that's his real name. Turns out it was in code.
Backwards, it is:
"Gnorts, Mr. Alien!"
from Eric Albert.
