Morlocks live among us.
I've been tossing the idea of describing most terrorists (classical sense) as Morlocks. In the early years of the 21st century, this means taking a customary pass through Wikipedia, to see what new knowledge mankind has been able to accrue for a topic.
Their entry for Morlock (from H.G. Wells' The Time Machine) had the following section(since deleted for "lack of sources"):
State of Alaska
More recently, the resource room staff for the State of Alaska Department of Labor and Workforce Development are known as Morlocks. This is attributed to their aversion to sunlight, affinity for ALEXsys, lack of alternate work weeks and a myriad of other eccentricities. Currently, these Morlocks on the first floor are to be differentiated from the much more enlightened Eloi on the second floor of the Gambell Job Center and Public Assistance Office. These Morlocks are easily distracted, however, by the implementation of a fishing pole and chocolate. Labor Morlocks commonly utilize unsightly forms of transportation. As a result, many of the Employment Security Specialist Morlocks despise the Elite Security Specialist Eloi who enjoy such luxuries. They are jaded, disenchanted beings who are often at the butt of a joke or scheming to foil the plans of the Elite Security Specialists; when it is the Morlocks themselves who are traditionally foiled. A Morlock's personality and success rate are reflected in their clients' sapped and impurified essences. Their likeness can be described as gaunt and pale. This description does not apply if one has worked at the Anchorage Midtown Job Center during the debut of ALEXsys. Finally, they are not to be trusted. Note that Eligibility Technicians are above this petty arguement due to their truly elite status.
What kind of example?
New Jersey governor John Corzine is out of the hospital now, apologizing for setting "a bad example" by not wearing a seat belt. I disagree. Eleven broken ribs, broken sternum, broken leg, and miscellaneous internal injuries, which all stem from not wearing a seat belt, provide an excellent example as to why buckling up is a good idea.

Dogs will chase remote-control cars as vigorously as they will the genuine article.
