Are aliens in our lakes, rivers, and ponds?

I was looking for a link for the stock market reference below, and stumbled across this headline. I'd hear about the story on NPR a couple weeks ago, but was only half listening.

Speaking of NPR, there was a review the other day of the Red Hot Chili Pepper's new CD, which echoed my thoughts of the title track that I've heard on the radio. It's basically about expecting more of the poppy stuff that I was sick of on Californication (sp?), sure that it was the same old stuff listening to the first few bars, and then the music changed and unexpected talent and grace appeared. It inspired me to go CD shopping last night (although I didn't buy a the Chili Peppers album).
