[The last port had sounded... traumatic. Indeed, five years later it brings back Vasilia's memories of Sanitarium Island quite clearly, and that only from listening to network traffic.

It's getting more difficult to restrain her homesickness. And the lack of her household robots, each in their way individual and attuned to her, is never more pronounced.

She desperately needs to talk Robotics.]

For those recovered from the recent port, or any who stayed aboard-- I wonder if any of you I do not know are familiar with robotics? Mister Stark, I believe, has mentioned AI in his posting, among others. A comparative discussion on local robotic design practice or the aspects of Programmatic Intelligence might not be particularly useful in rehabilitative efforts-- but still might be a pleasant way to spend an hour or so?

Happy Holidays, everyone! I found a funny comic about Christmas carols! Sure makes you wonder what other songs are out there, right?

[On the face of it, this is a local techie waxing enthusiastic about XKCD-- in other words, it's a day ending in Y. But even on years she isn't drinking herself into a stupor, Lisa Allen's general type-a douchebaggery is well known in the village, and her brand of fake cheer is probably fooling no-one.]

[Mansooreh's Brooklyn accent, never really mild at the best of times, gets thicker when she's surprised. The effect is sort of 1940's-esque; it's been a hundred some-odd years, the slang was due for a comeback anyway.]

Can I speak to the captain? Is there a steward or something? Look, this is a really really nice space liner but I don't have a ticket or anything! I have to get back to Schenectady, yesterday! Oh man, you guys, you only get one screw-up at US Robots and then you're canned! I can't miss work unless I'm dying. They'd still fire me if I was dying! They'd drop the pink slip on my coffin!

Oh, sheesh, this is bad.
