Oh, and Knowhow2, I don't think you're going to get Lord_Icewind's email. I just plain excluded him from IW1.

Peering in the darkness, Indra stared at the screen.

"Lord Icewind, come in. Lord Icewind, this is Unity-4. Come in. Is there anyone out there? Sir, do you want me to keep trying?"

"Hmmmm. It seems that the powers that were in place on the Unity are not the powers that have made it to the surface. Well, it matters not. Send the broadcast to whomever is out there."

our botanists have discovered a mildly hallucinogenic form of the standard fungus which has surrounded us. after inhaling the smoke from the new strain, i found myself giggling wildly and feeling extremely hungry. our citizens seem to find it equally appealling, and not much work is getting done. unfortunately, it also caused me to contact CEO arborman @ home instead of @ yahoo. i do hope he receives my transmission.

That gaian has misplaced the message. It simply must be sent to @yahoo, since the @home system is currently useless and messages aren't getting through.

whew! what a party last night. the new fungal strain (we've dubbed it "weed" since it can grow in large quantities in almost every kind of soil) was passed around all night.

i re-sent my transmission to CEO arborman. yahoo!

Call the CEO, some more worms have been sighted.

He doesn't like to be waked unless there is serious danger. Are they coming this way?

Unclear. They are on the extreme edge of our sensors. Some of our scouts are damaged and running back to safety.

The board isn't going to like this. How can we increase sales with the threat of those bloody worms in everyone's minds.

Maybe we should consider an increase in weapons manufacturing and advertising. We're bound to see an increase there.

Very well. I'll inform the CEO after his morning manicure.

Sergent James Terrenian eased his rover into the garage at Sparta Command.
The mechanic walked over to the vehicle. "Well, let's see what we have here." He began to open the hood... and experienced a feeling of dread. "Whoah!" he shouted, as he let the hood slam down and jumped back.

"It must be what I thought," the sergent commented.

The mechanic swore. "Why didn't you warn me?!"

"Well, I wasn't sure. We were attacked by the mindworm boil out on the road. I thought we'd toasted them all, but then the engine started acting funny. Thought I'd take it in."

"Yeah yeah, more likely, wanted to put one over on a civilian." He sighed, then shouted. "Benny! Get the worm toxin! We've got a live one down here!"

"grand beatch bella hella? can i have a word?"

"sure, dania. what's up?"

"well... i don't know. it just seems kind of slow around here. too quiet. is there anything wrong?"

the leader of the gaians smiled. "with peace? not a thing. hey, relax, dania. everything's ok." she reached her hand in her pocket and pulled out a little plastic baggie filled with bright pink stuff. dania's eyes widened.

"is that the new strain?"

"yup. the growers are calling it 'chiron pink'. would you care for a sample?"

dania grinned. "sounds good to me."

they went over to the window and sat down in plush beanbag-style chairs. the land below stretched before them, aweing them both with its beauty and wide open spaces. they were even more awed after a couple hits of the pink.

Sir. We have discovered why the Fungus was so impassable. Some form of native life infested it.

Indeed?

Sir, it attacked our patrol. Fortunately the flamethrowers proved very useful.

Hmmmm. I am disturbed. Flamethrowers were banned at the Geneva Convention. Issue orders to discontinue their use. We will simply have to find another way to address this situation, should it arise again.

Between you and Bella Hella, I am becoming very confident of my ability to dominate this game. Not really, but you guys don't exactly give of an air of competance.
