Reading Zachary's transmission I thought he was talking to himself
as he did contemplation about mission objectives yesterday. But as
it looks like our friends from foreign forces (?) are getting pretty close
already.
Therefore I think it's important to tell the probes the whole situation
we are in. The point of the right moment has come earlier, as we
thought.
I've made up my mind, who of the probes might be best to contact,
though they will hear all messages we transmit. Andrew is busy with
the transponder, Gail is watching the scenery and a little dreamy, Enoch
and Bette are exploring the shaft, so Zachary I think is best to talk, as
he is doing the transmission work.
Joule, your text, you've prepared is pretty good, but has to be actualized
to the current situation. The idea with a "lamb" to be sacrificed, if needed,
is quite good, but we have to get the information to them anyway.
Therefore I think, the best way will be, to second each other. Let's focus
the main info to Zachary flanked by some advises to the other probes. Some
of us should stay apart anyway, as we probably might be in need of some
help in recovering our reputation, if our attempts fail.
Joule, as far as it's on my side, I will have a chat with Zachary too and
just move the information over ...
