XO_Gleisen says:
::heads back down to his seat:: FCO: Excellent. Take us to the planet, then standard orbit.

CTO_Augustus says:
*XO*: Sir I will need Chappell for a few minutes for briefing, OK?

XO_Gleisen says:
*CTO*: Very well, but don't take too long. We just entered the system and we're going to need at least one of you on the bridge.

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Aye, sir.  ::adjusts course::

CTO_Augustus says:
*XO*: Aye sir. If we go planet side I will go along with the Chappell for evaluation, you understand sir.

*CTO*: Very well. Gleisen out.

CTO_Augustus says:
*XO*: Thank you Augustus out.

TO_Chappell says:
::enters CTO's office:: CTO: Sir!

ACTION 	The planet begins to become larger in the viewscreen as the ship nears a verdant blue green world with high clouds and storms in some of them.

CTO_Augustus says:
::looks up at the TO::

XO_Gleisen says:
::turns to Affleck:: CO: Didn't really think Chappell needed any more evaluation...

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: When I call it means now, not at your convience is that understood?

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Yes, sir!

CEO_Q`tor says:
::checks and confirms power to main sensors::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: I have read the logs from thee Away mission, is there anything you could have done differently?

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Shrugs at Gleisen:: XO: I don't know, maybe Augustus is being his usual 'thorough' self.

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Gets up out of chair and walks forward towards the helm::

XO_Gleisen says:
::heads over to science and checks the weather report on the planet::

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: No, sir.

FCO_Ranahi says:
::senses Affleck approaching him::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Are you sure?

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: Looks a bit like earth I'd say... just a bit.

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Yes, sir.

FCO_Ranahi says:
CO: Yes, sir.

CTO_Augustus says:
::looks up and down the new TO, waiting::

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: I am sure.

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: I see.  Is it your normal procedure to hand someone a weapon with out verifying its safety and powerpack, Ensign?

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: Looks like a nice place...

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Trying to sound enthused:: So kids, shall we get this underway?

SO_Shrek says:
   CO:  The readiongs of the planet make it +2 degrees above Earth normal and a slightly higher air pressure at surface, breathable , but those storms have an ionizing compnent, we may need a shuttle if we want to planet.

XO_Gleisen says:
::looks at Affleck, waiting for the order to get an away team together::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: I am waiting

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Err.. No, sir.

Host CO-Affleck says:
FCO: Put us in a polar orbit, it will enhance our scanning speed.

Host CO-Affleck says:
SO: Begin full scans and log them into the database.

Host CO-Affleck says:
XO: Ready for a field trip?

FCO_Ranahi says:
CO: Aye, sir  ::maneuvers the ship::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Very well then, I never want to see that occur again, esspecially with a Bridge Officer, understood?

SO_Shrek says:
CO: Plenty of  flora and fauna on the surface sir. none seem humanoid

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: Yes sir. 
FCO: Ranahi, your with me. 
*TO/CTO*: Chappell, Augustus, report to shuttlebay 1 for away team duty.

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Yes, sir.  ::orders a replacement officer, then makes his way to the turbolift::

CTO_Augustus says:
*XO*: A moment sir, we will be there shortly

XO_Gleisen says:
*CTO*: Lieutenant, I mean now, not shortly.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::grabs his mekl'eth and shoves it under his shirt. Grabs a tricorder, and heads off for the shuttle bay::

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Yes, sir.

XO_Gleisen says:
::gets in the TL and heads down to the shuttlebay with Ranahi::

CTO_Augustus says:
::looks at the TO and smiles:: *XO*: Aye we are on our way

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Two let's go

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Aye sir.

CTO_Augustus says:

XO_Gleisen says:
::arrives in the shuttlebay and heads over for the Challenger:: AT: Climb in...

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Follows the AT to the Shuttlebay, not wanting to be left out on this one...::

FCO_Ranahi says:
::clambers into the shuttle, and prepares for launch::

CTO_Augustus says:
::Arrives with AT in the Shuttlebay, admiring the Challenger with pride::

XO_Gleisen says:
::sitting in the co pilot seat, waiting for the rest of the away team::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::arrives in the shuttle bay, grabs a phaser from the weapons locker and walks over to the Challenger::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::takes seat at engineering console and straps in. Begins engine start up and launch sequence::

TO_Chappell says:
::arrives in the Shuttlebay::

CTO_Augustus says:
::walks over and removes phaser and tricorder form shuttle stores, hands them to TO after checking them, and his own::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Enters the shuttlebay, hoping they haven't left yet::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: You need equipment

CTO_Augustus says:
::sees the CO come in::

XO_Gleisen says:
::pulls a phaser and tricorder from the glove copartment on the Challenger:: CTO: Got it right here.

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: ::blinks:: Aye sir

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Skipper how you doing?

XO_Gleisen says:
AT: All aboard?

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Get aboard take TAC 2

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Approaches the shuttle and pokes head in the shuttle door:: XO: Permission to come aboard commander? ::Smiles, politely::

CTO_Augustus says:
::enters Challenger taking Tac 1::

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: Granted sir. Mind closing the door after yourself?

CTO_Augustus says:
::pulls up tac information on the planet::

XO_Gleisen says:
FCO: Alright, take us out.

TO_Chappell says:
::goes aboard the Challenger, takes TAC 2::

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Yes, sir.  Engaging launch sequence.

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Steps in and hits the button to seal the outerdoor:: XO: Not at all commander. ::Takes a seat somewhere in the shuttle and buckles up::

FCO_Ranahi says:
::powers up the shuttle::

XO_Gleisen says:
All: Hold on everybody, we don't usually have the best of  luck flying these things...

FCO_Ranahi says:
Self: Here goes.  ::launches the shuttle::

CTO_Augustus says:
::looks back at the TO to see his reaction to that comment::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::looks down at the operations console he sat himself at::

CTO_Augustus says:
:insuring that he is buckled up::

ACTION The Outdoors open barely in time that the shuttle doesn't hit them squarely ; but a loud screech is heard inside as both sides scrape

FCO_Ranahi says:
::looks stoically at the viewscreen:: All: Sorry.

CTO_Augustus says:
::shakes his head and smiles:: CEO: little more work for your boys to do again

XO_Gleisen says:
::glares at Ranahi:: FCO: Be careful, ok?

CEO_Q`tor says:
FCO: Do you mind? I'd like to at least try and keep us in one piece this time?

ACTION A red light flashes at the FCO and Eng Console indicating the loss of a thrust pod

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Acknowleged.  ::notices a thrust pod is lost:: We've lost a thrust pod.

XO_Gleisen says:
::stares at the red light, wishing he hadn't said anything at all about their string of bad luck with shuttles::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: Tactical and shields on line sensors are clean and clear.

XO_Gleisen says:
FCO: Ah what did I just tell you?

Host CO-Affleck says:
Q'Tor: Q'Tor, Um... in your last maintainance on the shuttle, did you happen to make it a bit wider?

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Yes, sir.  Compensating.

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Two, switch your Tac station over to the SCI version and run SCI from your station.

FCO_Ranahi says:
:manages to keep the shuttle upright::

XO_Gleisen says:
FCO: You going to be able to handle it from here on down?

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: I think so, sir.

CEO_Q`tor says:
::pushes some buttons:: XO: Compensating for thrusters CO: No sir, we just did not consider over zealous pilots

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Works with the Ops console a bit:: FCO: I've reouted power from the pod we lost, or where it would usually go, to the others, should give you a bit more control.

XO_Gleisen says:
::glances at the planet. It sure seems far away when your pilot hits a wall, then loses a pod in the space of 3 minutes::

FCO_Ranahi says:
CO: Thank you, sir.

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Aye, sir. ::switches to SCI::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Any spectral analysis you want done?

Host CO-Affleck says:
Q'Tor: Maybe we should widen the space door next time or stick the shuttle in the main cargo bay instead?

FCO_Ranahi says:
::hears all the thoughts of the Away team about his flying, narrows his eyes::

CTO_Augustus says:
::thinks to self or just have the FCO open the doors before we leave::

FCO_Ranahi says:
::without warning, barrel-rolls the shuttle, looping up to a full loop, then drops the shuttle into a death drop, pulling out after a few seconds, proving the Away team with plenty of G's::

CTO_Augustus says:
FCO: We have ion storms in the atmosphere

XO_Gleisen says:
FCO: Alright, assuming we have no further unforseen diff....what the hell are you doing! ::holds on as the shuttle goes all over the place::

CTO_Augustus says:
FCO: Sending you those locations please try and avoid them

CEO_Q`tor says:
::tightens straps down a bit::

FCO_Ranahi says:
CTO: On it.  Everybody hold on.  If you don't think I can fly now, then you'd better pray to whatever gods you believe in.

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Braces himself in the back as he seat as the shuttle plumets:: FCO: Ok Ranahi, enough playing arround!

XO_Gleisen says:
::as the shuttle evens out again he breathes deeply and grabs a hold of the console in front of him:: FCO: Alright, get us down ASAP.

CTO_Augustus says:
::laughs:: TO: Well Two welcome aboard ::laughs again, but tightens his restraints::

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Yes, sir.

FCO_Ranahi says:
::heads for the clouds::

XO_Gleisen says:
FCO: ETA, assuming we don't have any more unforseen difficulties?

CTO_Augustus says:
FCO: We have a storm cloud at 328.90 you are heading for it

CEO_Q`tor says:
::makes mental note to "invite" FCO to one of his holodeck work outs sometime real soon::

TO_Chappell says:
::looks at CTO:: CTO: Thank you, sir.

FCO_Ranahi says:
CTO: Acknowleged, sir.  It's the smoothest way down, check your sensor readings for the rest of the upper atmosphere.

XO_Gleisen says:
::looks over at Ranahi, hoping he doesn't go through that storm, giving him a chance to move away by himself::

ACTION  An Ion Arc hit the shuttle and it knocks out the engines and controls the shuttle plummets like a rock

FCO_Ranahi says:
::flinches as sparks fly from his console::

CTO_Augustus says:
::smiles::  CO: Skipper, I am scanning with Tactical now  TO: Scan for life science

FCO_Ranahi says:
CO: Propulsion is down!

XO_Gleisen says:
::squashed against the back of his chair as the Challenger falls out of the sky::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Skipper do you want communications opened with the Qlb?

CEO_Q`tor says:
Self: Qu'vatlh!!! ::attempts engine restart::

XO_Gleisen says:
All: Brace for impact!

ACTION The Shuttle hits the Ocean surface hard and it plummets to a depth of about 150 feet before resurfacing, water pours into the craft

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Pushed into his chair as the shuttle plumets again:: CEO: Get a cold restart.

FCO_Ranahi says:
::braces::

CTO_Augustus says:
Self: The fun begins

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Gets thrown about in his chair as the shuttle hits the water, dazed::

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Aye, sir. ::scans for life::

ACTION As the suttle floats back on the surface the water stops leaking in

FCO_Ranahi says:
All: We're taking water!

XO_Gleisen says:
::smacks his head against the side wall, but other than that doesn't get rocked around much::

CTO_Augustus says:
::releases safety harness::

ACTION  Any who care to look up can see 4 shafts of sunlight streaming in

XO_Gleisen says:
::looks out the window at the endless ocean::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::feels a sharp pain in his upper chest and left shoulder::

CTO_Augustus says:
::stands up hittiing the emergency beacon and launches it and preset SOS::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Two report

CTO_Augustus says:
::starts trying to seal a leak by his station::

XO_Gleisen says:
CTO: Hail the QIb. Inform them of our difficulties.

CTO_Augustus says:
FCO: You ok

FCO_Ranahi says:
CTO: I think so, sir....

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: SOS is sent buoy released

XO_Gleisen says:
::looks over at Ranahi:: FCO: ::wry smile:: Nice driving.

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Unbuckles his safety harness:: CEO: Let's get these holes sealed incase we end up going under again.

XO_Gleisen says:
CEO: Engines status?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::activates force fields::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Report.

CTO_Augustus says:
CEO: Q`Tor buddy you ok back there?

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Just for the record, Commander, I was nowhere near that storm.

CTO_Augustus says:
::Looks over at the FCO::

CEO_Q`tor says:
XO: QI'yaH engines are offline!!! Sir!

XO_Gleisen says:
::nods:: FCO: I know. Good job to make sure we hit water, and not the mainland though.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CEO: Are they fixable?

ACTION the Shuttle drifts towards the shore about 120 meters distant

CEO_Q`tor says:
CO: I don't know yet sir

CTO_Augustus says:
::Fixes hole and hears QTor's voice relaxes a bit::

XO_Gleisen says:
::looks up:: Self: Four suns...going to be hot...

FCO_Ranahi says:
XO: Uh, I had nothing to do with that, sir.  But I'm not going to stop you putting that success on my record  ::winks::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: Sir check on Chappell he hasn't reported in yet

CTO_Augustus says:
::busies himself scanning the shoreline for life::

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: I'm not dead...

CEO_Q`tor says:
::yells in pain as he tries to move back to engine area::

XO_Gleisen says:
FCO: Believe me, after this you'll need all the positive stuff you can get from this mission. ::smiles::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Are you able to move or are you hurt?

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: I can move. Sensors detect several lifeforms.

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Confirmed can you go assist the CEO?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::grimacing through the pain::FCO: You taHqeq! If you ever try to fly my shuttle like that again I will have your head as an ornament in my quarters!!

CTO_Augustus says:
CO/XO: Gentleman variety of lifesigns of the shoreline, large type mamals and different assorted fauna of lesser scale

XO_Gleisen says:
::hopes that the QIb saw them go down and a rescue shuttle is on the way::

XO_Gleisen says:
CTO: Anything dangerous to us?

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Aye, sir.

CTO_Augustus says:
::smiles, he'll live:: CEO: Sending Two to assist you

CEO_Q`tor says:
::keeping left arm pulled up close to his chest begins one armed repairs on the engines::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: Well unknown as of current but visual indicated that there is one larger than the others and he is eating it

FCO_Ranahi says:
CEO: With all due respect, Lieutenant, that had nothing to do with me.  That arc came out of nowhere.

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: So, he could be the kind that eats us?

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: Once we get to the shore, sir, we should probably try to find some shelter. We might be here a while.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Skipper I don't assume usually I presume and I presume yes meat is meat

Host CO-Affleck says:
XO: Agreed, we'll break out the weapons, rations and emergency transmitter... though I'm not sure how effective it will be, depends on the powercells.

XO_Gleisen says:
::nods:: CO: Hopefully the QIb will have seen us. ::mutters something under his breath:: We should have left someone up there. Junior officers might not know what to do.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: If I may recommend, secure the shuttle to the shore.  From here if phasers and shields are still operating we have a better chance of defending and less chance of contamination of the planet if its ionhabited.

XO_Gleisen says:
::checks out the window how far from the shore they are now::

CEO_Q`tor says:
XO: Sir, we have main power online, but the engines are gonna take some work

TO_Chappell says:
::runs to assist Q`tor::

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Two report status of engineering, shields and phasers

XO_Gleisen says:
CEO: Is the radio up?

CTO_Augustus says:
::monitoring sensors and Tac::

Host CO-Affleck says:
XO: It's alright saying that in hindsight.....::Pauses for a moment, thinking:: I'm gonna take a look up top. ::Turns and walks over to the ladder to the dorsal hatch::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Communications is down however, I released the bouy

CEO_Q`tor says:
::checks communications systems::

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: Alright. Make sure you're careful sir. We don't have any life preservers onboard.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir I detect structural indications

TO_Chappell says:
CEO: What's our status?

XO_Gleisen says:
::takes a moment and listens to the sound of the water, lapping against the hull::

ACTION With an almost inperceptible thud the shuttle reaches the beach and stops

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Grabs a phaser rifle from the stash and then climbs up the ladder, opening up the dorsal hatch. peaking outside with his rifle at close hand::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Skipper, let me

XO_Gleisen says:
All: We're here, everybody out. ::pops open the hatch and jumps out, splashing in the two feet of water heind the Challenger, then heads for the beach::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: Structual scans reveal no humanoid lifesigns.

FCO_Ranahi says:
::follows everyone out::

ACTION A Wave splashes into the Shuttle through the open rear hatch and knocks the XO over

XO_Gleisen says:
CEO, CTO, TO: Q`tor, Augustus and Chappell, grab all the emergency supplies.

CTO_Augustus says:
::pops his neck and shakes head.  Skipper is endangering himself must run in the family aboard this ship::

XO_Gleisen says:
::his feet swept out from under him, he falls on his back, soaking all the equipment on his belt::

CEO_Q`tor says:
TO: We have main power, engines are down, communications are dead, I think I have some broken ribs, and possibly a broken collorbone. Other than that we are in just wonderful shape. How's your day?

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Almost laughs as the XO gets attacked by the wave::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: Sir are we going to secure the vessel or head to the structure?

XO_Gleisen says:
CTO: How far away is the structure?

TO_Chappell says:
CEO: Err... right...

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: In this open area about 10 KM, I must remind you we do have predetors in the area

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Engines are down, communications are down, but main power is on.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: I do not recommend leaving the shuttle

CEO_Q`tor says:
::hands the TO some emergency supply packs:: TO: Pass these on.

XO_Gleisen says:
::considers for a minute, then looks up at AJ:: CO: What do you think sir. Shuttle, or investigate those structures?

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: In my opinion we should move out. Our orders are to investigate the planet.

CTO_Augustus says:
CEO: Do the transporter work?

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: And with personal phasers, the local wildlife shouldn't be a problem.

TO_Chappell says:
::passes some emergency supplies to Augustus::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::pauses for a moment:: XO: I Agree, sticking with the challenger may be good in theory but without power it's helpless...

CTO_Augustus says:
::accepts them and places them inside his uniform in pockets secures them with velcro::

Host CO-Affleck says:
::pops the dorsal hatch back down, reentering the shuttle to follow Gleisen out::

CEO_Q`tor says:
::checks some circuits::CTO: No, transporters are offline

XO_Gleisen says:
CO: Agreed sir. So we move out. ::looks inside the ship, where most of the AT still is:: All: We're moving out. Grab as much of the emergency supplies as you can, grab a phaser and tricorder, and be ready to go in 5 minutes.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: We have main power it's defendable and semi secure. Scans indicate flat terrain, no cover.

XO_Gleisen says:
CTO: ::sternly:: Our decision has been made Gladius. Prepare to fall out.

CTO_Augustus says:
::shakes head grabbing another phaser and 2 phaser rifles, and packs and auxillary generator to recharge packs and batterries::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: Aye sir, may I suggest leaving an indication of where wee are going

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Grabs a tricorder as well and holsters it before proceeding to the hatch:: CTO: We're not sitting here like a dead duck.

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Aye

XO_Gleisen says:
CTO: ::nods:: Put a message on the computer for when our ship comes to rescue us.

CTO_Augustus says:
TO: Two bring the portable replicator, it may come in handy

XO_Gleisen says:
::grabs rations from just inside the shuttle door, and takes off his uniform jacket, leaving it in the shuttle::

CTO_Augustus says:
XO: I'll take the point, I presume we are heading to the structures?

XO_Gleisen says:
CTO: ::looks up at him, covering his eyes from the suns:: CTO: Yep.

CTO_Augustus says:
::sees the Xo remove his jacket:: XO: That might not be wise we don't know the weather conmditions

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Picks up one of the backpacks and packs it full of rations and water and survival stuff including powercells::

TO_Chappell says:
CTO: Aye, sir. ::grabs the portable replicator and a phaser rifle::

CTO_Augustus says:
CEO: Can you caarry anything

CEO_Q`tor says:
XO: Sir, I will remain here and attempt to get the engines and other systems back online

XO_Gleisen says:
CTO: Right now it's hot, and if we're going to be walking 10 kilometres, I don't want to drop dead from heat exhaustion. We have thermal blankets for if we're still here at night.

CTO_Augustus says:
::hears Q`Tor reply and...::

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: Sir we have a med bay here on ship we should fix any injuries before we leave.  I don't want to leave anyone behind

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Puts the backpack on and then jumps out the back hatch into the water::

XO_Gleisen says:
CEO: Work on the radio transmitters first of all, then engines.

CEO_Q`tor says:
XO: Aye sir

TO_Chappell says:
::drops the portable replicator on his foot::

XO_Gleisen says:
All: Everybody ready?

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Agreed, anyone hurt, you attend to them.

TO_Chappell says:
Self: Ow!

Host CO-Affleck says:
All: Anyone got a field medkit with them?

CEO_Q`tor says:
::grabs a med kit and gets the hypospray, then injects himself with the pain killer::

XO_Gleisen says:
::watches Chappell:: TO: Stuart, anything heavy and awkward, leave here. We have enough rations to last us a long time.

CTO_Augustus says:
::Throws a kit to the TO::

XO_Gleisen says:
::picks up his package of survival stuff:: CO: There's one in here sir.

TO_Chappell says:
All: Hello, Tactical officer with foot stuck under replicator over here! Help!

Host CO-Affleck says:
::Frowns:: TO: You were one of these kidds that had to take every toy on vacation weren't you?

CTO_Augustus says:
CO: I'll take point and scout ahead, by that time, I'll cover at least the first hundred meters and come back, OK?

Host CO-Affleck says:
CTO: Ok.

FCO_Ranahi says:
::watches proceedings::

XO_Gleisen says:
::climbs up into shuttle and lifts the replicator off Chappell's foot::

XO_Gleisen says:
TO: That stays here, agreed?

TO_Chappell says:
::drags his foot out from under the replicator::

CTO_Augustus says:
::Turns to leave::  CEO: QTor, watch for them. ::motions toward the CO, XO and TO::

XO_Gleisen says:
::hands him a kit with rations, a medkit and other emergency supplies:: TO: Bring this instead.

CTO_Augustus says:
::Jumps ashore:: *CO*: Comm check you hear me sir?

XO_Gleisen says:
::climbs out:: All: Ok everybody, let's go. ::starts walking away from the Challenger, towards the park area::

TO_Chappell says:
XO/CEO: Thank you. ::takes the supplies from Gleisen::

Host CO-Affleck says:
*CTO* Five-by-five lieutenant.

TO_Chappell says:
::climbs out::

CTO_Augustus says:
*CO*: I'll report only if necessary. Augustus out

CEO_Q`tor says:
::waits patiently for everyone to leave the shuttle::
