Precipice

Subject: Checking In

I’m hoping this missive will reach you reasonably quickly. Steffi tells me that connectivity on Earth has taken some hits, but that it should be possible to make the necessary hops (the advantage of e-mail being a store-and-forward medium).

Right now we are in reasonably good shape. We’ve had some problems, mostly of a technical nature, but we’ve been able to resolve them one by one.

However, with all the reports coming in from all over Earth, I cannot shake the sense that we stand on the edge of a precipice. I have no idea how deep the fall may be, or how hard the landing, only that we will be looking at some very difficult times ahead.
