The guy in Rosetta Stoned talks about seeing ET while he is near Area 51.
In one episode of the X-Files (the one with Seth Green, well before Seth Green was famous), Mulder sneaks into another top secret military base (not area 51) and witnesses UFOs, then they take him and fry his memory.
The reason Rosetta Stoned reminds me of this X-Files episode is because we're all sitting here arguing about whether or not the guy in Rosetta Stoned actually experienced anything otherworldly. Well, in this episode, Seth Green plays the role of a stoner. When Green's character says that the UFOs they saw at the base look exactly like the one in the picture Mulder shows them, Scully later points out to Mulder that they were completely stoned and would've told Mulder whatever they thought he'd believe. But later in the episode we find out that, whether or not Green's character actually saw the UFO, Mulder DOES, and he is not under the influence of any drugs.
The government discovers him though (because he went well past where Green's character told him not to) and zaps his memory (MIB-style).
I'm not suggesting that I necessarily believe that any or all of the X-Files is even remotely true, BUT, I think might possibly be what MJK could've been hinting at with Rosetta Stoned. In the X-Files episode, Mulder had enough memory to know that he DID see something and that someone did take it away from him, he just couldn't remember what he saw.
