Once upon a time, three-eyed aliens lived among us. They would stick their tongues out in friendly greeting. But we were too dumb, too obtuse to sense their joyful, whimsical communications, and they went away. Now we only have touchscreens and streaming music to keep us "entertained" in the darkness...
