Good day, gentlemen.
MAVERICK O'HOWELL and EDWARD RUNNER, the two of you almost scored high enough on your questionnaires; subsequently the Selection Board has DENIED your applications. Withal, you are welcome to apply again after some time has passed - provided you score improves a bit, you might make it in. I look forward to flying with you two some day.
ZEEROI TAKANN, it seems that your questionnaire has not yet been sent to us. Until we receive it, you are placed on HOLD. Please do fill out the forms and send them to us soon.
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)
