[At first, this sounds like an old radio is being tuned until a recording is being suddenly broadcast. As it progresses, however, the sound becomes clearer and sharper... like an image coming into focus, but with sound.]

-calm... and firm... in this time... of trial.

The task will be hard. There may be dark days... ahead, and war... can no longer... be... confined... a-to the battlefield, but we can only do the rr-ight as we see the rr-ight, and rrr-everently commit... our cause... to God.

If one and all.. we keep... rr-esolutely... faithful... to-it then... with God's help... we shall... p-prevail.

[The speaker takes a deep, shaky breath, and then-]

What the fuck?!

	Coffee. And for these samples to finish getting processed so I can go get the coffee. Are you okay? Do you need coffee? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's okay if you don't know, since you're clearly new. What's your name? [Soft beeping can be heard in the background as he speaks, and then some things are rattling about] The coffee's in a number of different places. I'd need to know where you are first, before I can tell you how to get to the coffee. Can you describe where you are? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	New? W-what d’you mean... new? [Another long pause, thinking...] Bertie. Erm- there-there’s snow, shoveled ah-up ah-ahagainst the walls... of a uh c-corridor... doors... uh.. a strange... symbol on a metal w-w-wall. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I mean that you're in a place you've never been before. So you're new. Hello, Bertie. [A long pause on Miguel's side this time, as he gets a text from Dan and stops to read it] I know where you are. Do you want me to come and meet you, and we can get coffee? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's hard for me to explain it. The science types could do a better job. Sorry, I'm just kind of used to having to say that to new arrivals. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	(a pause as she thinks of what to say next) This must be very confusing for you. Especially on such a sad and important day. I'll try to explain as much as I can. You're in a entirely different place from where you were before. You're also in a different time. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
