This article from 2017 just found me (so my apologies if it was previously posted a few years ago):

Popular Mechanics never did enable me to get that surplus U.S. Army Jeep for $42.35 like the ad in the back of the rag promised.  Why would I trust them now?

Can you explain further? 

Think about what you wrote.  Do so objectively.  Think about what it means regarding the likelihood of intelligent life elsewhere.
