Moses is sitting in the Egyptian ghetto, things are going terrible. The Pharaoh won't even talk to him, the rest of the Hebrews are mad at him for making the overseers even more irritable than usual, and so on, and so on, and so on... He's so depressed about it all, he's almost ready to give up. Suddenly a booming, sonorous voice speaks from above: "YOU, MOSES, HEED ME. I HAVE GOOD NEWS, AND BAD NEWS." Moses is staggered. The voice continues: "YOU, MOSES, WILL LEAD THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL FROM BONDAGE. IF THE PHARAOH REFUSES TO RELEASE YOUR BONDS I WILL SMOTE EGYPT WITH A RAIN OF FROGS." "YOU, MOSES, WILL LEAD THE PEOPLE OF ISRAEL TO THE PROMISED LAND. IF THE PHARAOH BLOCKS YOUR WAY I WILL SMOTE EGYPT WITH A PLAGUE OF LOCUSTS. YOU, MOSES, WILL LEAD THE PEOPLE TO FREEDOM AND SAFETY. IF THE PHARAOH'S ARMY PURSUES YOU, I WILL PART THE WATERS OF THE RED SEA TO OPEN YOUR PATH TO THE PROMISED LAND." Moses is stunned. He stammers, "That's, that's fantastic, I can't believe it! -- but... but... but what's the bad news?" "YOU, MOSES, MUST WRITE THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT."
