Looks like they have finally caught on...

basal_surge will be miffed.
No Stone Unturned (link found via Boing Boing and Bruce Schneier)
This may cramp his iron ore importation industry should the local authorities catch on...

3 weeks...

Heard from basal_surge - Yay!!!
They want him in the field for the next 3 weeks... So he will be back (pause for calculation) round Nov 1. Not so yay but still copable.
Contact is lible to be brief and intermitant on an approximately weekly basis whenever he gets into town to resupply.
He may run out of books though at least he has plenty of iron ore to play with.

So why do the pay phone conversations always cut out mid sentence - appart from the fact you are trying to squeeze the last ounce of contact time out...
