I'm quite sure Klaatu is from another planet :P

That WAS shameless.Quote: NareedI'm quite sure Klaatu is from another planet :P

And a damn easy question!
GORT!
But in the 2008 remake, Klaatu never spoke his name. It was the scientists that 'named' him with an annagram that by no small coincedence, was G.O.R.T.
What did G.O.R.T. stand for?

Superstitions are silly, childish, irrational rituals, born out of fear of the unknown. But how much does it cost to knock on wood? 😁

I also was searching, since I'm not really into SciFi. Found a different resource.
And there even seems to be some Brit vs. Yankee issues in the authorship of the references. The URL you cite uses "Organised" while IMDB (URL below) uses "Organized".

Absolutely. That's what I said "shamelessly."
Anyway, to bring it back a bit:
"You come down as fast as lightning." And that's about as obscure, I think, as I can get on an English-language board.
But maybe this one: "No loving, no caring, no program for pairing."
