Nah, it was just my sense of humour. It was in the episode where mulder
and that military guy exchanged bodies, and the military man went with
Scully to the Lone Gunmen's place. He spotted their up-coming newsletter
which talked about Sadam Hussein, and he commented that he had made him up,
as a publicity covering for what was really happening out there.
My scientific knowledge is just based on stuff I've picked up from
various sources, such as New Scientist. I am not as lame at science as my
posts seem to be (I've been re-reading a few of them). Have you read
"Moving Mars" at all? Worth a read sometime if you haven't. Science isn't
my speciality really, it's more general knowledge (I've been barred from two
local pubs on quiz nights, and I am heading for a third barring, for winning
to often)

Hmm, I know a fair bit of general knowledge, but very little trivia.
Most pub quizes are trivia as opposed to general knowledge.

Xfiles is also an anagram of "FX lies" meaning deception by means of
pyrotechnics.

For wolves and pigs and bears, thinking that they're human is a tragedy.
For a cat, it's an experience.
