'''Victor Laxman:''' Hello<br />
Cycreim: What brings you to Delin, man?<br />
(02/16 22:07:53) Arthur Kalnins: Whoops.. Sorry<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Just checking some readings.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Hello Arthur<br />
Cycreim: What kind of readings?<br />
(02/16 22:08:30) Arthur Kalnins bows<br />
(02/16 22:08:30) Arthur Kalnins: Hello, Mr. Laxman<br />
(02/16 22:08:37) Cycreim: Anything we can help out with?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Related to air pressure and such.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Interesting readings.<br />
Cycreim: Yeah?<br />
(02/16 22:09:33) Cycreim: Weren’t there… weather issues or something?<br />
(02/16 22:09:36) Arthur Kalnins: Do you think it has anything to do with the reports of snow?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Delin is interesting. Conditions can change here quickly.<br />
Cycreim: Wait, conditions? Is this something we should be worried about?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' We had to delay because of weather issues that we didn’t understand.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Nothing serious, but we’re seeing similar readings again.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Pressure is falling.<br />
Arthur Kalnins: If you don’t mind, sir, may I ask a completely un-related question?<br />
(02/16 22:11:33) Cycreim: Fast?<br />
(02/16 22:11:43) Cycreim: Hey Xanos!<br />
(02/16 22:11:48) Xanos: Shorah everyone<br />
(02/16 22:11:52) Arthur Kalnins: Shorah, Xanos<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' We saw this before and the weather changed unexpectedly - within days.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Hello Xanos<br />
Xanos: Hello Mr. Laxman<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' So I’m curious if there is a pattern, or it’s more complex - chaotic.<br />
Cycreim: Hmm, that’s something we can watch out for…<br />
(02/16 22:13:50) Arthur Kalnins: Indeed.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Thought I would monitor a bit more closely this time.<br />
Arthur Kalnins: Shorah, Robert.<br />
(02/16 22:14:07) Cycreim: Cool. I should tell the other Great Tree members about this…<br />
(02/16 22:14:21) Arthur Kalnins: Do you have any theories about what causes this?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Well, just so you’re all aware.<br />
Kestr’l: shorah<br />
(02/16 22:15:00) Cycreim: And, uh, sorry to pepper you with questions, but is this related to why Tsogahl was delayed?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' It certainly is weather related, but I don’t know the big picture in this age.<br />
Kestr’l: It’s an honor to finally meet you, Dr. Laxman<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Thank you Kestr’l.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Nice to meet you as well.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' From what I can tell, if the pressure continues to fall we should see changes within a few days.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' But I’m not a weatherman.<br />
Arthur Kalnins: Hmm.. Any danger to the Explorers?<br />
(02/16 22:16:57) Cycreim: Do you want us to let you know if anything happens?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Only if they’re wearing shorts.<br />
Victor Laxman laughs<br />
(02/16 22:17:18) Arthur Kalnins starts to laugh<br />
(02/16 22:17:38) Robert F. Caine: Dr Laxman, this is a bit off topic but do you have an ETA for GZ calibration?<br />
(02/16 22:17:40) Arthur Kalnins: Anything like what the northeast is seeing?<br />
(02/16 22:17:43) Cycreim: How long does it take until the pressure rises again?<br />
(02/16 22:17:59) Cycreim: Or, well, how long did it take last time?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Anyway, there aren’t many Delin Ages so you may have quite a few visitors.<br />
Cycreim: Ooh, lots of victi-I mean guests. :)<br />
(02/16 22:18:46) Austruck: I can hear you guys. ;)<br />
(02/16 22:19:08) Kestr’l: sorry to walk in on the middle of things - what is the pressure you are speaking of?<br />
(02/16 22:19:14) Arthur Kalnins: Air pressure<br />
(02/16 22:19:23) Austruck: My blood pressure<br />
(02/16 22:19:33) Austruck: j/k<br />
(02/16 22:19:34) Kestr’l chuckles<br />
(02/16 22:19:42) Cycreim: Yeah it looks like Delin’s gonna get a cold spell.<br />
(02/16 22:19:52) Kestr’l: I noticed that anohay’s water has been poisoned… can you tell us anything about that?<br />
(02/16 22:20:00) Xanos: I suppose the sandals would not be recommended footwear either.<br />
(02/16 22:20:15) Austruck: Why not? My kids try that in Pittsburgh all winter long. ;)<br />
(02/16 22:20:36) Kestr’l: (noticed from the DRC site)<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' It was days last time, but I have no idea if that means anything.<br />
Xanos: Liability, maybe? :)<br />
(02/16 22:21:18) Kestr’l: what’s the D’ni equivalent of a Groundhog? Maybe wek can make it last 6 weeks longer… heheh<br />
(02/16 22:21:23) Cycreim: Hmm.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' One event does not provide information for a pattern.<br />
Cycreim: So uh, what’s the deal with these cloths here, anyway? That’s what most people have been coming to see.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' So if it changes again we’ll watch it. May be able to see a pattern develop…<br />
Austruck: Cycreim, I dn’t think they’re here to open the door. :(<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' If there is one.<br />
Austruck: Finally found a Delin, and I stumble into a board meeting. Just my luck. ;)<br />
(02/16 22:22:32) Cycreim: Hey Marchetto!<br />
(02/16 22:22:34) Arthur Kalnins: I see Nick is on.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Nick and I were in yesterday as well.<br />
Arthur Kalnins: Victor, there are reports that someone’s asking about Nick’s salary. Wanting to talk in private<br />
(02/16 22:23:17) Arthur Kalnins: Any information on that?<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' The cloths are not DRC related.<br />
Arthur Kalnins: I gathered that.<br />
(02/16 22:23:29) Kestr’l: Dr. Laxman, eplorers like myself have so many questions to ask you… would it be possiblefor you to give a guided lecture on a particular age someday?<br />
(02/16 22:23:39) Xanos: Dr. Laxman, is the DRC aware how the cloths got here?<br />
(02/16 22:23:59) Cycreim: Yeah, well, obviously… but… were they around before you guys started investigating this Age, or did they suddenly appear, or what? I’m just curious about your take on that…<br />
(02/16 22:24:10) Cycreim: Your personal take, I mean, not the DRC’s :)<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' I’d enjoy that at some point. Cate would prefer us to get the kinks out before we take such a break.<br />
Thend: Hello all<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Excuse me a moment.<br />
Cycreim: No problem man<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' Sorry, checking KI-mail.<br />
Kestr’l: Dr Laxman, You mentioned that there may be snow in Delin, is that correct?<br />
(02/16 22:26:15) Arthur Kalnins: So, Victor. Do you know anything about the KI message an explorer got about someone wanting to know Nick’s salary?<br />
(02/16 22:26:34) Cycreim clears his throat.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' I’m not predicting the weather neccesarily. Just watching the pressure change.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' But there could be changes.<br />
'''Victor Laxman:''' I’ve got to leave. I’m afraid I’m on call. I’ll try and get back later. Cheers!<br />
Kestr’l: fascinating… could the DRC bring some meteorological equipment into Delin to record the changes?<br />
(02/16 22:28:06) Arthur Kalnins: Shorah, Victor.<br />
(02/16 22:28:12) Xanos: Thanks for dropping by Dr. Laxman.<br />
Victor Laxman waves goodbye. <br />
