Oh no!

You do realise what you've just done don't you?

Why oh why did we have a button coded to Delete Universe*.*;*

It looks like a trip down below for a backup copy. I hate going down there, into the deep basement. The guy in charge has some real problems with authority; and it is so damn hot down there too. Hasn't God fixed the air conditioning down there yet?

Is Gabriel still the head of the testing team? We'd better get them involved too.

It is going to be a busy day. No rest for the wicked.

That guy just has a bad disposition because he knows he's going to be fired... :P

Nah, it's because he got downsized and had to found his own business on his former boss' turf. They're both itching for a hostile takeover.

^He can go to hell for me. He's always rude and objectionable. And what's with that big fork?

Moses has just brought in the new rules for the software specification. Ten were bad enough, but trying to code for 13 million rules is going to take a while. And why does each document have to be carved in stone? Do you know how heavy these tablets are? Hasn't anyone around here heard of Angel messaging? Why do you think these people have wings?

Things have come on a long way since God wrote his first program "Hello World" he's a lot more ambitious nowadays.

My only fear is he will subcontract out all the development work to the Elves and Goblins, they work for next to nothing.

I've even heard rumours that someone called Bill Gates is offering to develop the next universe.

That's the one! Codename Winverse. It is supposed to be modular in design and to allow everyone to customise their own version of reality. I'm not looking forward to supporting that one - too many configuration issues. I can see the attraction though of allowing everyone to live in their own little world, but the interface between different realities will be difficult to code.

There is an emerging open source universe too, called Ubuntiverse. But there are a lot of problems interfacing it with the existing hardware. Sun microsystems will be involved with stellar objects.

Voice sounds similar to Peirce Brosnan's, but my mind registers an incomplete match.

However, it appears you're correct: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0795421/
