.and those of you who meet our standards will be given a Microelectroencephlogram , a physiological measure of intelligence, by a Board-certified Psychoneurologist. To anticipate a question, the standards are the same. Then, childless couples will be tested for fertility. Those of you who meet our standards of being the best of the best will be offered Participationship.”

      Another audience member asked; “Why do you call it Participationship?”

      “Because it is you who will be participating in a ground-breaking scientific experiment that we hope will resurrect the good name of Eugenics, and, if successful, will have a profound impact on every Biological discipline directly related to Genetics. Those of you who accept will be told more about the implications of The Project.”

      Yet another audience member asked; “What about those who don’t meet your standards?”

      “We will thank them for asking to be considered with the reminder to hold this solicitation confidential.”

      And yet another audience member asked; “Back to nuts and bolts. What about our assets like our home, our car?”

      “Our Financial Specialists will assist you in disposing of your assets, liquidating those you wish to transfer to funds in an account which you can access at The Project.

      The audience member continued; “What about notifying our relatives and close friends?”

      “Our Relocation Specialists will assist you in that activity.” George paused, then asked; “Are there any other questions?”

      The couples in the audience looked at each other, but none of the audience raised a question. George smiled quietly to himself, and then said;

      “Thank you for applying to possibly become Participants. In your materials is a mailing card with your names pre-printed on it. Mail it, and you will be notified about the arrangements for the first testing.”

      George left the stage as the audience filed out.
