The scientist and his research staff were interacting with the recently landed aliens to gain information about their lifestyle when the question of reproduction came up. Finding it difficult to understand the oral description, the head researcher said "Why not just demonstrate for us?"
The male alien then proceeded to intertwine his antennae with those of the female alien and after about 30 seconds of flying sparks a large sack begins to form on the female's back and two minutes later the sack breaks open and out pops a miniature alien.
"That is how we reproduce. How is it done here on earth?", asked the aliens.
The head scientist looks at his female assistant and says "In the interest of scientific interchange I think we should demonstrate, don't you?"
The assistant hesitantly agrees and afterwards the research scientist says "That's how we do it on earth."
After a few minutes the alien asks, "But where is the offspring?"
"Oh, the gestation period is about 270 earth days", answers the scientist.
"What!" exclaims the alien. "If you have to wait 270 earth days, then why were you in such a hurry at the end?"
