"During the space program, the Apollo astronauts practiced "moon-walking" in
the Southwestern deserts. The strange sight of the space-suited figures
wandering around the landscape attracted several Indians. One of them could
speak English, and the officials in charge told him what they were doing.

When he informed the others, one old man wanted to write a message to send to
the moon. The NASA people humoured him, and he scratched out a message. When
the other Indians read it, laughed, but didn't say anything.

The NASA people couldn't read it, since it was in Indian, and they finally had
to resort to paying a willing Indian, for whom they had to search, since most
refused to tell them what it said.

The note said, "Watch out for these people! They're coming to take your land!"
