Subject: Grail:"The Great Brightness"- An unexpected outburt from an unlikely source.

A post by Tony Verde (bartender)

After listening to everyone's ideas and suggestions and thinking them over I

decide that I must offer support to the idea I think will be most beneficial

in the long run. Looking for the opportunity to express his opinion I step

forward and start my speech.

Maybe I'm entitled to voice my opinion and maybe I'm not. But I'm going to

do it anyway. I've heard several ideas in this meeting, some of them good,

some not even half-baked. But I think the most viable idea came from Mr.

Deschaine. I understand the fear that this might cause dehydration on the

planet but I disagree. I will help engineering design and build a few water

purification systems to send to the planet. With all of the ice melting it

can be purified and releive any water loss due to the igniting of the sun.

It's not like the temperature is going to instantly change on the planet

from 0 to 80 degrees in one day. It will take a period of months for all

of the ice to melt and things to be getting back to normal. One of the

things we have to consider is how they will get food also. One thing would

be to make a few replicators and teach a few of them how to do it

themselves. That way they are at least on the right course and can start to

become self sufficient. Now that I've spoken my piece I'll let someone else

have the floor.

I turn around and disappear back into the back of the room. Not knowing

what kind of response to expect. I know some of the things I had just said

had been voiced by others but I had to back up the best plan in my mind. I

look for CDR. Hargen to see the expression on her face after my speech.

Looking for support or anger from her. I also look for LT. Mallory and Mr.

Deschaine to see their expression.

 

OOC. Sorry I've been gone for so long. Things here have been pretty busy.
