That is the wrong attribution for that quote.  While Brian was till in
grade school, the quote was known under its alternate Koan incarnation, 
"Beam me up Scotty, no intelligent life down here", and the first person 
to say that was not actually a human,  but the slightly rusty chrome 
bumper of an RV that frequented the space-time of Arizona.  Thought 
you might like to know.

p.s.  I'm sure of the above; in a previous lifetime, I was reincarnated 
as a heavy-duty bias-ply RV tire.
