(04/26 17:10:48) Tweek: would like to Welcome and thank Marie for agreeing to meet with the explorers.
(04/26 17:11:16) Tweek: Marie asll yours ^_^
(04/26 17:11:39) Marie Sutherland: Good morning, everyone
(04/26 17:11:52) Marie Sutherland: Thank you all for coming.
(04/26 17:13:34) ]Marie Sutherland: I guess I'll start by telling you a little about myself.
(04/26 17:15:37) Marie Sutherland: I've been with the DRC since 1993.
(04/26 17:16:32) Marie Sutherland: and an official member of the council since '97.
(04/26 17:19:09) Marie Sutherland: Back when the restoration was going full time, I oversaw phases 3 and 5
(04/26 17:20:02) Marie Sutherland: We should probably get started with questions.
(04/26 17:20:30) Tweek: ok
(04/26 17:20:34) Ivan waves
(04/26 17:20:37) Janina waves
(04/26 17:20:48) Tweek: go ahead Ivan
(04/26 17:22:13) Ivan: Any information you're willing to devulge about Blake? Is he satisfied with the number of explorers?
(04/26 17:23:19) Marie Sutherland: Hopefully we're close.
(04/26 17:23:57) Tweek: he seemed optimistic when he dropped by earlier.
(04/26 17:24:07) Marie Sutherland: I don't think he's looking for a specific number, though.
(04/26 17:25:01) Marie Sutherland: We'll try to give you news about that when we have it. Next question. (04/26 17:25:20) Janina: As an anthropologist, did you also study the civilizations that are/were native to the Ages? If yes, are we going to see any info on them?
(04/26 17:25:21) Tweek: slight change, if you have a quesiton can you PM me that you want to ask.
(04/26 17:27:53) Marie Sutherland: We have primarily focused on making the Ages safe for explorers. We do
(04/26 17:29:37) Marie Sutherland: occasionally learn a bit about the natives in the course of that, but we haven't made that our focus.
(04/26 17:31:52) Marie Sutherland: I would like that to change over time, if the restoration returns full time.
(04/26 17:33:18) Tweek: please remember to use the /shout command
(04/26 17:34:08) Ivan nods his head
(04/26 17:35:04) Vormaen: I wanted to know, about Dr. Watson and if you do not want to answer, maybe why the unwillingness to speak about such an important part of the DRC?
(04/26 17:37:40) Marie Sutherland: Unfortunately, I don't have any information to give about Dr. Watson. I haven't seen or heard from him for two years.
(04/26 17:38:59) Tweek: ok unfortunatly we only have time for one more question,
(04/26 17:43:10) Chris Burnham: What is the timeline for new DRC programs such as ages, or whatever is else is coming?
(04/26 17:43:19) Marie Sutherland: That highly depends on funding. We'll probably focus on Ages that can be restored more quickly
(04/26 17:43:27) Marie Sutherland: while the restoration is ramping up again.
(04/26 17:45:29) Marie Sutherland: Sorry that time is so short. Thanks again for coming.
(04/26 17:45:43) Ivy: thank you Marie
(04/26 17:45:54) Marie Sutherland: these town hall meetings will get better as we get the hang of them. :)
(04/26 17:46:05) Tweek: Thanks everyone who attended, thanks Marie for agreeing to take part in this, Thanks to our Host Carl and the use of his hood.
