Swarm findings:

We've run the numbers. All models for growth, lifespan and metabolism only work when applied across the entire population, rather than to individuals.

In some ways, they're like advanced hive insects, a single advanced superorganism. Containment is vital.

Among large-bodied organisms? I'm still skeptical."

There's no doubt the eggs are dangerous though. We had an accident today. One of the workers was found dead.

Agree containment is vital, but don't foresee difficulty.
