Weird. Read it out loud using a Mark E Smith accent and it starts to sound like The Fall. Sort of.

Easy.
The aliens are trying to contact us again- if you take the fourth letter of each word it spells 'the Truth is Out There' in Esperanto, and if you hum the words slowly in the key of F it plays like 'Also Sprach Zarathustra' by Strauss.
It's also doubles as part of the human genome code, alternated with a recipe for Italian rice pudding by Norma Major.

One possible answer is to get round spam prevention programs.
Some programs now check e-mails for words like 'porn' viagra'
'money' 'rich' 'lottery' etc and delete the mail.
By putting a subject like 'kangeroo oak jelly horse trousers'
it will get through.
Its possible

What's the point of learning Esperanto? You can't go to Esperant for yer holidays........
And I WAS being serious- is it my fault if nobody takes me seriously?
Still, no man's a prophet in his own land..........

Yes, but if the resulting spam doesn't actually advertise anything purchaseable, or indeed intelligible, what's the point?
........presumably to drive us all barmy- in which it seems to be succeeding.
