| The Space Alien Returns! |
The Space Alien Gazette, a distinguished occasional periodical, published briefly in hard copy during the 1980's, now returns to edify and amaze its readers.
The Space Alien first appeared in the home of Your Editor nearly half a century ago. Otherwise unexplained phenomena (muddy tracks in the kitchen, disappearing cookies, faucets left running, etc.) over the years were (at least according to Your Editor's offspring) clearly due to this remarkably endowed but sometimes forgetful character, who aspires, above all else, to be helpful.
Some people, familiar with Your Editor's general spaciness, thought Your Editor was actually the Space Alien. This is, of course, a silly rumor which should be immediately quashed!

The official portrait of the Space Alien was first produced on a dot-matrix printer in the early days of personal computing, and scanned into the current version of the Space Alien Gazette. The Space Alien has never authorized another personal portrait.
Please note that the Space Alien is post-gender, and does not care to be referenced as "it," finding this too cold and impersonal. This obviously creates some problems for Your Editor (a.k.a. Joan Levin) who knows of no generally accepted English solution for this problem.
We hope you will enjoy the adventures of the Space Alien, a well-meaning but somewhat naive creature, who can travel through both space and time at tachyonic velocities exceeding the speed of light, and yet exists as a modest and benign presence in our lives today.
