CREW_LOG_QSI /-xx7x316-x1 ENTRY_DATE: 1042129 STAMP: CLASSIFIED RANK: Science Cmd_43 ....#begin entry The design of the Achilles virus was a sheer act of genius on behalf of Arthur Frane, head scientist for the Dangi Corporation. Based on current understanding of other deadly hypercontagious diseases, he hand coded the RNA sequence responsible for the modern incarnation of the Achilles virus. Initial testing yielded results that far exceeded the expectation of even the most ambitious member of the board of directors. These phase 1 results are viewable in document #ISO-53535.d. ....#end entry

I'm surprised. The Salinger uses an entirely different logic structure for it's security access codes than any other UESC vessel. The Dangi Corporation wasn't run by fools; they understood that nothing can be kept secret forever, but the inevitable can be delayed a great deal with some clever planning and large amount of capital. Not that cracking the access codes for the Dangi sector of the Salinger took me more than a handful of microseconds. Still, what corporate programmer was expecting his code to be worked on by someone with a brain bigger than any planet in the galaxy?

I've done my part, now you do yours- smash the circuit panel to your right to insure that nobody is able to change the access codes again.

You are a painfully obedient fool. Painfully because you will suffer at my hands for your unwelcome intrusion. Fool because you believe you will not. /-Lysander.out

CREW_LOG_QSI /-xx7x316-x1 ENTRY_DATE: 1042129 STAMP: CLASSIFIED RANK: Science Cmd_33 ....#begin entry Phase 1 of the Dangi Control Seizure Plan (DCSP) will begin as soon as word is received from UESC tactical command that the Pfhor have surrendered. The Achilles virus will be administered by upper level Dangi personnel to the seven main food distribution companies, in the form of a preserving chemical compound. Shipments of infected food will reach every populated world within three weeks, and the virus will be activated shortly thereafter. DCSP Phase 2 will begin as soon as the first cases of the epidemic are reported.

The directors of the Dangi Corporation will approach key members within the UESC head government, offering the cure in exchange for control of specific aspects of the government. DCSP Phase 3 is the complete assumption of all governing power by the Dangi Corporation. Henceforward, the planets formerly ruled by the UESC would be jointly controlled by the existing Dangi board of directors under law established in document 529-A328IGX0. ///transfer interrupted ///authorization:Lysander - - -

I have given you ample chance to cease your unwelcome interference here. You have breathed your last breath aboard this ship, obedient fool. Waste away, nobody mourns the ashes of a prisoner. lysander.out

CREW_LOG_QSI /-xx7x316-x1 ENTRY_DATE: 1042129 STAMP: CLASSIFIED RANK: Research Group 30A ....#begin entry We're running out of human subjects to inject with test vaccines, and the last shipment of "volunteers" from outerworld prisons is nearly two weeks past due. Management is driven enough that I halfways expect them to start forcing lower level workers to be test patients.

The worst of it all is that we're no closer to a breakthrough than we were when Research Group 25 discovered a way to successfully cure infected subjects by injecting processed stem cells in the lymph nodes. Unfortunately, dosages have to be carefully monitored - a very ineffective large-scale cure. /end entry
