[DeathStar> Newsreporter: Also, reports are that their station has under gone alot of damage and that EarthGov doesn't have the supplies to bring it back up to state.  So, donations are being offered.
[DeathStar> Computer: Where's MY damn reward?
[Paladin`> For utterly failing to do anything worthwhile?
[Garland> No I'm not Arono, but I don't fight for monet, or the acknowlegdment.
[X1> Where are we gonna get donations from? Bill Gate's cryogenically frozen head?

[Dominator> Luckily, this isn't a "mission" so we won't have any combat in this thing
[Dominator> That's too bad... And with the losses our fleet substained from that last battle, EarthGov's funding is stretched pretty thin
* Garland sits there smiling
[DeathStar> We lost twenty five ships, that's a big blow
[Paladin`> Well, with out the tsivs, there shouldn't be too many threats requiring that many resources . . .
