Scene: A busy London street. A young man has an altercation with a chip-shop owner about insufficiently soggy potato. He storms out of the shop, and walks straight into traffic where he is killed by a cyber-taxi. Several hundred nearby CCTV cameras pick this up, cross reference his face with an organ donor list and the metropolitan AI responds by despatching buzzard drones. Seventy-three seconds later, the first few arrive and begin roughly chopping out his heart and liver. Shortly, several from hospitals farther away descend and promptly start on his eyes. Minutes later, his picked-clean bones lie quietly on the sidewalk. An onlooker mutters about the noise being "a bit of a bother", pauses, eying the eerily clean skeleton, and concludes "could be worse though, I suppose".
