x Not Invented Here (MSV, Desert Class):
Read. Also henotic?
∞
x Wisdom Like Silence (GSV, Continent class):
But the Not Invented Here was reported destroyed in 2.31! Identify
yourself, you liar! Security breach! What is going on here?
∞
x Shoot Them Later (Eccentric, Culture Ulterior, AhForgetIt tendency
[t. rated Integration Factor 73%, vessel rated 99%]):
Tee hee.
∞
x Full Refund (Homomdan ‘Empire’ Class Main Battle Unit [original
name MBU 604] Convertcraft [vessel rated Integration Factor 80% {nb;
self-assessed}]):
Add delitescent.
∞
x Wisdom Like Silence (GSV, Continent class):
What! We can’t have a self-assessed ex-enemy craft privy to M32-level
matters! What is going on here? Security breach! I invoke my authority as
convener of this Group to suspend all M32 level discussion immediately
and until further notice while a full security review is carried out.
∞
x Different Tan (GCU, Mountain Class):
Indeed so, perhaps. Even - whisper it - an outrance?
∞
x Wisdom Like Silence (GSV, Continent class):
The Different Tan is also not an accredited member of this Core Group!
This has gone far enough! We hereby--

x Star Turn (Rock, First Era):
Filing name change.
From: Star Turn

To: End In Tears.

x No Fixed Abode (GSV, Sabbaticaler, ex Equator Class):

I suggest firstly that we rid ourselves of this ridiculous ‘Taussig’ nonsense and call the matter after Esperi, the nearest star; I also propose that between eight and sixteen days from now - depending on the availability of more noteworthy news from elsewhere - we move to an information release at M16-level, simply saying that we have discovered an excession of an ambiguous nature, which we are investigating and which we are asking others to stay away from. Assuming that they will not, we should request the Steely Glint to instigate a measured and localised military mobilisation, immediately. Beyond that, the normal democratic processes will doubtless apply.
