This is clearly an ET message. It looks a little like
the Arcturus Northern Suburbs dialect. There probably
have been some interferences on the way from Arcturus
to Earth, this being a plausible explanation why
stories turned out into sotires (gamma-ray distortion
?)

I can feel a somehow threatening tone in such short
sentences like "onelm sufstwhe." or "ghnevrdhm.
oipmota." I think it doesn't sound very polite. I
should not have used the word "oipmota" myself in this
context.
