-----BEGIN TRANSMISSION----- Ben Goldstein [from QEC]: We thank you for your continued support of the Galactic News Agency. Remember, starting with tomorrow’s broadcast, your old QECs will no longer receive GNA broadcasts due to the DQEC Transition. Stop by your local Galactic Tech Emporium to buy one today. Keep in mind the free DQEC offer has already ended. [Galactic News Agency weather song plays for about 10 seconds] Weather Announcer: Tonight: Cloudy skies with broken clouds. Tuesday: Clear skies and very high temperatures reaching up to 47 degrees Celsius. Wednesday: Clear skies with higher temperatures reaching up to 60 degrees celsius.

Announcer: This is the Galactic News Agency, brought to you by GBS-SBN: the Galactic Broadcasting System and Summit Broadcasting Network, in the service of the Federation. Now signing off.

Jaan Sechs [still shouting]: No can do! Reble Ranway [turning around to face Jaan Sechs, still yelling]: WHY? Jaan Sechs [even louder]: I CAN’T LOG IN! NOOOOO!!! INTERNET!!!!! Reble Ranway: We’ll have free wifi soon. Jaan Sechs: How? Reble Ranway: Going to meet an old friend. Jaan Sechs: Ohhhh. I’m going back to the lab. Reble Ranway [shouting]: DAMN IT JAAN! YOU LEFT THE FUEL SIPHONS OPENED AND SPILLED HALF THE EMERGENCY FUEL! Jaan Sechs: There’s more in the unused pitcher I stuck in the fridge. Reble Ranway [looking at glass]: the WHAT?? Jaan Sechs: The emergency fuel isn’t poisonous! It’s basically just the old cooking oil with some other things. I make it in the lab every so often. Besides, it’s not like I’ll have anything to do since we won’t get GNA anymore… Reble Ranway [now looking at QEC]: The federation doesn’t broadcast over QEC anymore?
