First is to increase their "certainty" in our probes and mission. That means avoiding any
confusion and irritation at their side. Sorry I missed to intervene about writing Bette at
the wall. I don't think, they have a chance to know, who Bette is. Bette can't write and
the ETs haven't yet detected probe's transmission as a form to communicate. Seeing an
unknown word at the wall their confusion might rise. I think after writing "FRIENDS"
best word next is "YOU" so they can introduce themselves and give us the opportunity
to introduce ourselves more detailed by the names of the probes and the vision of our
mission and we are able to learn about them, who they are, where they come, what their
intentions are and so on. After this kind of shake hands, we can ask about Bette and will
get her back as a prove of our and their trustworthiness, we will have been able to build
up until then. -- Anyway, let's see what will happen now. If there is too big confusion,
Enoch can wipe out Bette's name, so the issue is off the table and he can go back to a
hand shake procedure again.
Second is to increase their "uncertainty" concerning the MNs and their mission. That
way the J-probe is doing fine by claiming: "All existing technology on Mars are now
property of Gen-Exploration" By his doing so, we've "only" to transport the information
that Christoph Columbus has landed and it is just a question of time, Hernan Cortez will
come. As more hostile the J-probe is acting as better to us. We must only take care, that
he cannot harm our probes and their facility. So taking him prison, before the ETs have
got aware of his nature and his mission's tasks, would be not quite opportune at all. We
finally can't act against the MNs without help of the ETs. Nevertheless, we should keep
our position still open to all sides too, if it might probably come out, that the ETs are the
"bad guys", so it doesn't look that way at the moment. Remember, we don't have an air-
carrier at the shore.
