Government halls are empty at 5:01 (bring your bowling league), except for the few ‘crats who stay behind to steal laptops (try getting yours out of the HHS HQ).

My favorite line: “‘”No one person actually understands the whole thing,’ said Mistry, the engineer coordinating all the work.”
Ah, Mr. Mistry, that’s the **problem.** In the government, they **all** understand it. That’s why it works so well!
On the other hand … maybe ignorance is strength, after all.
