I had access to a laser printer in 1986. They certainly would have access to one at a well-funded Silicon Valley operation. (That's not to say that I don't think this is a hoax - I most certainly do.)
I'm not convinced that "Halo 3" is the answer here. The discussion you and others have pointed to doesn't make that case a slam dunk. I'm also not convinced that that flash animation thing is necessarily associated with the UFO pics.
As I mentioned before, by no stretch of the imagination do I believe that these UFOs are real or that there was actually a secret company established in Palo Alto to research extraterrestrial technology.
Regardless of the source of all this information, it's a brilliant hoax.
Fair enough re: the Digg link being lame. I'm going to remove that. Rest assured that my including it was only because I thought that this post was particularly interesting and thought it might be useful for bringing new traffic to this site.

Neither I nor Alex placed this post knowingly for viral marketing purposes (although Alex may have exercised some sort of MIND CONTROL over me without my knowledge and manipulated me into posting it from afar - but I doubt it).
Iris Chang committed suicide two or three years ago as a young woman, allegedly in part due to emotional trauma she experienced researching the war crimes in Nanjing.
59 foreign holidays taken? Wow - that's an amazing statistic. I wonder what that number would be for Americans.

I hope she goes public. How talented!
Better late than never, I guess! hehe
