I'm not sure where they came from. I *think* they are from x. Lemme dig
around my instructions pile...

AAAAHHHH!!! No, say it ain't so! ;-)
I must admit, I have been tempted to see the movie, even though I understand
that it thrashes Heinlein's vision, and that they did most of their casting
from 90210 extras. :-,

I tried once, with this guy:

fighting this guy:

But I didn't pull it off well enough for me to be happy with it. However, I
think I was lacking in sheer numbers, not form. Again, I gotta admit that I
liked the scene in the S.T. promo with the bug army simply *pouring* over the
massed human troops -- very eerie.
