[ WP ] A strange disease hits earth and only men over 60 years old are able to reproduce . The dating market changes dramatically .

`` I'm not kidding. Does n't it seem **very convenient** to you?'' Brenda asked her friend Shelly. 
 
 `` What do you mean?'' Shelly replied as she looked up from her microscope in the CDC lab. They both had been working at the CDC for most of their professional careers, which was only a few scant years after spending all that time in various grad school virology programs. They had spent most of their 20's in school; soon they'd be turning 30. Both were still single. 
 
 `` Well... suddenly... out of goddamn nowhere... a virus spreads globally. Its ONLY impact on humans is that ONLY men over 60 can impregnate women.'' Brenda says with irritation. She hastily adds `` In fact, studies have shown men closer to 75 have better odds.'' 
 
 `` Yeah. The'Hefner Virus'... so what?'' Shelly says. 
 
 `` Well, think about it. How OLD are the worlds most talented male virologists with a genetic engineering background?'' Brenda asks with a jaded tone. 
 
 `` Holy shit. Are you saying this virus was... engineered?'' Shelly asks. 
 
 `` Well. Think about it. The `` Hefner Virus'' spreads. SUDDENLY every 60+ male is a HOT commodity. Not just the decent looking ones who bothered to take care of themselves. Even the most wrinkly, crusty, overweight, crotchety old farts are now ASS DEEP in hot, young pussy.'' 
 
 `` Damn.'' Shelly says as she just stared out into no particular area of the lab. 
 
 `` AND! I am STILL trying to figure out WHY artificial insemination NO LONGER WORKS. That was an amazing feat.'' 
 
 `` Did n't that old bastard Prof we had before all this happened... Dr. Stangotz... used to say creepy shit about how something like the'Hefner Virus' would be possible with'proper engineering'?'' Shelly asked. 
 
 `` Yeah. That miserable fucker. It was probably him. WE NEED TO INVESTIGATE THIS!'' 
 
 Shelly just sighed. `` Yeah, well, we'll start tomorrow. I've got ta go. I've got a date with Edward. He likes eating dinner at 4:30 so he can get home in time for his shows. Plus, he gets mad if we eat later and he misses out on his senior discount. So. I'll see ya.''
