I spent twenty minutes walking around the astronomy department before I found someone, the switchboard operator, watching TV in the break room.
"Excuse me, where is everyone?"
She shrugged.
"Everyone called in sick. Although they didn't sound sick. I think I heard a couple at the airport when they called in. But they all emptied their expense accounts so who knows?"
I called some of the other universities, and we quickly put 2 and 2 together, and everyone looked up at the skies in fear.
Unaware that the geology departments were all good friends with the astronomy divisions, it seems.
