[ WP ] The world as we know it is a case study , and the panel of scientists in charge are debating wether or not to end it .

`` You're proposing we end it?'' 
 
 `` Let's face it. They've over-run the planet. It's just not self-sustaining anymore.'' 
 
 `` They're so majestic, though...'' 
 
 `` Doctor, it seems to me that you've become somewhat... *attached*'' 
 
 `` Maybe. We've been watching a long time after all.'' 
 
 `` We took an oath to remain objective. That's how science works. `` 
 
 `` Yes, but wiping out whole species...'' 
 
 `` They've done that several times all on their own. We would just be taking the decision out of their hands.'' 
 
 `` Do n't sugarcoat it. That's genocide and you know that as well as me.'' 
 
 `` It's our right. We *made* them.'' 
 
 `` Still...'' 
 
 Silence. Then... 
 
 `` We ought to step back. This obviously is n't working.'' 
 
 `` Just let someone else handle it?'' 
 
 `` Precisely.'' 
 
 `` Have they decided what to run next then?'' 
 
 `` Since Project D is quite clearly a failure, they decided to go with something a bit more economical: Project H.'' 
 
 `` Those things will never survive. Who's running it?'' 
 
 `` New guy. Ca n't remember his name. Yawley? Yellwen?'' 
 
 `` Never heard of him.'' 
 
 `` It's on the tip of my tongue. Huh, damn it. Guy just had a kid. Showed the pictures around the office. Kid's name was Jesse I think.'' 
 
 `` You mean Lou's brother?'' 
 
 `` Yeah, him.'' 
 
 `` Damn. They get younger every year. I was going grey when I got my first lead.'' 
 
 `` I was there too. I remember.'' 
 
 `` Yeah. Maybe it's time to retire. I've got a nice beach house picked out and everything.''
