Hey, Zachary. Those symbols you transmitted are from the Chinese alphabet. They aren't phonetic, they stand for words. I think this confirms that the C-probes are from earth, as I don't think that technology almost identical to ours, and language identical to ours, and their use of ASCII could occur together anywhere else. Gail, only tell Mrs. Chang about unimportant things, like necklaces or rocks. I smell ulterior motive all over her. She's too nice not to have one.
Daniel, try to tell us who's coming, please. We need to know, and you're the only one who does.
To all of you, I want you to know we're proud of you.
Be cool,
Orpheus
