004 conspiracies uncovered

[specialagentgf]

The so-called deities are refusing to divulge what they need our locks of hair for. Until they make their intentions clear, I would advise everyone not to give them any of your hair.

[quackingly]

Why? It's just hair, isn't it?

[specialagentgf]

It can be used for any number of purposes, including genetic experiments such as cloning.

Whatever their purpose in collecting our hair is, doing so without informing us of its purpose is a violation of our civil liberties and the scientific ethical code.

[quackingly]

C-cloning? Is that bad?

[specialagentgf]

When it's done without your knowledge or express consent, yes.

[quackingly]

Well, but...I'm giving them my hair, so I guess that's kinda permission...

[specialagentgf]

No, that's not permission. It's only permission when they tell you the purpose and you agree to it.

[quackingly]

Oh.

[specialagentgf]

It's best to play it safe.

[quackingly]

It's just that...Mouse made it sound like the Zombie thing was our fault because we didn't listen, so...

[specialagentgf]

Zombie thing?

[quackingly]

Y-Yeah. People were getting sick and turning into zombies...a lot of people.

[specialagentgf]

That's just not --

You shouldn't be under an obligation to obey senseless and petty decrees. Even if the...zombies...were some kind of punishment, that doesn't make it right.

[quackingly]

I know it's not really right the way they hurt people, but...but...I don't know what else we can do!

[specialagentgf]

There has to be some way to resist.

[quackingly]

I don't know. Even Fakir can't...

[specialagentgf]

I'm sure there's some way. Don't worry.
