Wow.. um... that's a quality graph there... I've never seen a graph in Crayola Magic Marker before.

This classy looking graph has me convinced that Mars is covered with manta rays, leaky pipes, gorillas in masks, human skulls, etc.

ExtraSense is serious, as can be found at the Mars Blog, where he has been locked in the "Penalty Box" and the key has been thrown away.

His claims were too over the top even for the Blog, where half the participants think that every rock is a fossil or even alive. One user even claims there are more fossils than non-fossil rocks on Mars. And people believe him.

They want life to be on Mars ... ergo, it is.

Some at the blog even accuse Mars-life skeptics of "lacking belief in anything" and being "atheists."

He can't be serious. I've been browsing his site and found photos of rocks that he claims are:

Dead bugs.
A bug eating a shrimp.
An ice cream cone.
A pregnant antelope.
Mushrooms.
A fox eating a mushroom.
A white elephant.
A fish statue on a whale fossil.
A paw.
A lion with an arrow tip in it's chin.
Double face monsters With spine.
A big guy with a bow tie.
A fisherman's tent.
A martian partol. (apparently Mars is patrolled by gorillas)
Etc. etc.

And lots of them don't even vaguely look like what they claim to be. About half of them just look like ordinary rocks. How he can even see lions and berries and what have you in them is beyond me.

Mars just sounds like some sort of whacked out acid trip with pregnant antelopes, double face monsters, guys with bow ties and "unfinished heads with yarmulk".

I've tried to make friends with the demonic turtle who keep appearing when I don't get any reception on my TV, he is always comanding me to kill people. I'll try to reason with him. The probability of the little white dots to form a horned turtle is after all microscopic, but if you stare long enough at the screen and if you haven't slept in over a week he is sure to pay you a visit.

Ignore him. He's just trying to play a practical joke on you. Unfortunately, he doesn't know that going to prison or the psych ward isn't funny in this world. You can also chase him away if you invite a pentecostal over and have him talk in tongues (to the demonic turtle). That worked for me.
