COMM ID:Vice Admiral Rohj Teerin TARGET ID:Corentin Brothers Limited SUBJECT:Monthly Payment - January ENCRYPTION:Medium PRIORITY:High
Mister Corentin,
Recently there seems to have been a glitch in the registered facilities database due to an update in the routing protocols. As a result, I bring good news in addition to yet another late fee reminder.
Overdue payments for prior months are no longer necessary. However, because this has become a habit for you, we expect that you meet the deadline for these next couple months. As it stands, Secretary Dufresne is expecting you to file your January bill within the next few days.
Sincerely,
Vice Admiral Teerin,
Liberty Navy First Fleet.

"You see what your knowledge tells you you're seeing. ... how, what you think the universe is, and how you react to that in everything you do, depends on what you know. And when that knowledge changes, for you, the universe changes. And that is as true for the whole of society as that is for the individual. We all are what we know, today. What we knew yesterday, was different; and so were we."
- James Burke, The Day the Universe Changed (1985)
