Have you ever tried to park downtown... only to return to your car and find a ticket on the windshield? There's a new website that uses bots to help fight tickets. Good news is they're beating the system. We also look at the idea that aliens will be friendly... but given the evidence (human nature), I can safely say an encounter would not go well.
