"It is best not to swat at the fly's starting position, but rather to aim a bit forward of that to anticipate where the fly is going to jump when it first sees your swatter,"

And if all of mankind starts doing that, we will have flies that do just the opposite of what they are doing now.

Which is OK if it causes global cooling.
