The Program
There
came a day when Wolven Hoyt, the richest ant on earth decided
to dedicate all of his assets, six billion bucks, to a program,
the details and purpose of which were known only to him. Unfortunately,
while announcing his program to the ant world, Mr. Hoyt suffered
a stroke and croaked on live television before he could tell anyone
what the program was about.

This circumstance left
the management of the Hoyt foundation in a real spot. Without a
program the government would take possession of Hoyt’s billions
leaving no foundation to keep them employed and they would all be
forced to go out and get real ant jobs such as twig relocation and
puddle mapping. |
 |
With
that in mind they conceived a plan to simply concoct a meaningless,
yet spectacular program that would feed off of Hoyt’s billions and
keep them employed for years to come. They recruited 50 expendable
volunteers and established a base at a place called “Area 102”,
(because it’s purpose is twice as secret as Area 51). There they
began “The Program”. |
In “The Program” there
are rockets and launch pads, |
screaming
ant jets,

under
sea exploration vehicles,

|
ants experiencing lots
of G-forces,

and expert coverage
