The crew and passengers of the "B Ark" were told that their world was about
to be destroyed, and that the population would be evacuated in three Arks:
A, B and C. The A Ark was to carry productive workers, the C Ark supervisors
and managerial types, and the B Ark those such as marketing staff, telephone
sanitisers, hairdressers and so on.

Actually, the planet only sent the B Ark, the rest of them staying home to
enjoy an improved standard of living "having rid themselves of an entire
useless third of their population". Until they were all wiped out by a
disease contracted from a dirty telephone.

We now return you to your scheduled programming...
