LOL!

Wouldn't you have to get rid of half of him? Then a quarter? Then...

Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy: "And some people thought that 
coming down from the trees had been a bad idea". (Quoting from 
memory, so don't expect accuracy!)

A colleague of mine used to teach an environment subject in 
which, early in the term, he took them on a walk through the 
forest so that the students could appreciate its natural values.

Towards the end of the walk he pointed out that they were 
actually in a managed plantation -- and therefore largely 
artificial -- forest.

The fact that the students couldn't tell the difference (between 
"artificial" and "natural" forests) always caused some deep 
discussion.
