I was expecting that, by now, the Zetas would at least be saying that Niribu was "only visible to those who are properly attuned to its higher energies," or something like that. It's harder to argue against that sort of thing, being outside the purview of anything rational and hence arguable. But no, the Zetas persist in trying to be, erm, scientific. Check out their , um, methods:

1.) Grab a lossy JPEG image from a skeptic's website.
2.) Pump the contrast levels until JPEG artifact noise dominates the image.
3.) draw circles around random magnitude 20+ regions noise, having something to do with "moons" or "personas" or something like that.
4.) Credit this "proof" of Niribu's existence to the skeptic. Yeah, that'll show him!

I'm sure that this sophisticated technique could be applied just as readily to images from the Keck, or the Hubble for that matter. This is world-class insanity we're dealing with here. I have to wonder what these people will be saying in May.

Cheers,

Nathan.
