Hi Enoch,
this is Xanthos. Good work you are doing with Isaac, Enoch. You are saying he is mean, rude and nasty. Is he now talking a little more than only his ID ?? What's about starting to play simple games with him, like "I can taste a thing, that is >green<" and he has to find out by questioning, what you mean ?? However, please, don't let him out of the Fortress and please never let him unguarded, when he is off the trap tunnel.

Anyway, please keep yourself concentrated on that, what you think, you can hear or taste. Remember, it had been you, who established contact to Jose once. So let's see what you find out this time. Keep your sensors tight ... Good Luck ... I'm anxiously awaiting your reports ... m.f.g. Xanthos

Hello, Bette. It is GrandZero.
Obviously you are correct and I was mistaken. It is apparent that I need to go back and review probe function and architecture.

I'm sorry if my attempt to explain my views confused you even further. Perhaps one of the other MARSupials can explain things better than I.

Just ignore my instruction to retrieve the thermocouple from the disabled EU-probe and proceed in whatever manner you think appropriate. I am sure your judgement will be more that adequate.

Your friend...GrandZero.
