Autopsy?
Well, maybe not.
Of course, in some cases -- those library schemes that have proved . . . er, less than viable -- "autopsy" may be highly appropriate.
French is euphonious:
Apres mort
Which is as good a point as any at which to segue into a classic of cynical office humor:
THE SIX STAGES OF A PROJECT
1. Wild enthusiasm
2. Complete panic
3. Utter despair
4. Search for the guilty
5. Persecution of the innocent
6. Promotion of the incompetent
And, Number 7, may I dare say? -- Postmortem.
