[thseeger]

Thomas shook Voncloud's paw and said whit a friendly smile: “Its good to see you friend come please sit down and join us.”
He looked at Mojo and Voncloud: “You think they are ready for this?” he smiled to both of them “well only one way to find out i guess. If you will be so kind to excuse me for a moment my good friends i think the time has come.”

Thomas got up and started his way to the podium, as he nodded to the various people along the way. He stopped at the podium and took his briefcase out, while he said “no panic folks it's not a bomb”, he started to laugh and looked down at them with a smile. “There are probably not many of you who know me and know what I Represent. I must do it the right way”, and a little more formally he said with a smile. “Good evening ladies and gentleman, I'm Thomas Henrikson head doctor and researcher in ZHR and administrator of Free Port 9 and Corfu base, which is located in Omicron Theta.

I would like to start by thanking, a good friend of mine Dr. Mojo for hosting this meeting, it is truly an honor to know a good man like him, and also it is an honor and privilege to stand here today before you.

He took a sip of his water and looked around to see if he had everyone's attention. “I stand before you today to talk about several things and I hope that it will open anyone's eyes to see what is happening around us. My honorable brothers and sisters. We live in a world where people threaten us, they steal our technology and use it against us, as CEO Voncloude has pointed out in his speech.
[b]He nods to Dir Voncloude
Not only that, but they use our bases as a staging point to conduct wars. To give an example: not long ago, an Outcast fleet of ships used Freeport 9 as a starting point, for their endless war against the Corsairs. And how do you think the corsairs will stop it, they will then remove their staging point of these attacks, which is the Freeport.
He looks down whit sad eyes ad Miss Kane and Commander Matok
And the sad part of it, is not the only place this it happens, I think that Miss Kane and the good Commander Matok knows about the problem, if I'm not mistaken, it was among other things, what happened at Freeport 1.He looks sadly down at them all. So many lives wasted in others' wars, and unfortunately for us, it is us who pay the price, our way of life are threatened our existence, my esteemed friends we are paying the price for there simple minded way.
He look up whit reneved focus
My dear friends.
Our world has become much more dangerous to live in, the increasing activity from Nomads and Outcasts in Omicrons is just one more example of what is happening around us.
Gallia forces invade Taus and shoot peaceful trade convoyes down and why they do it, well why not do it, we are defenseless and have nothing they need.
I know you will say we can use our deplomatic abilities, and I believe fully and squarely in that it is the right way forward, and the right way to solve things, but we can not use our deplomatic abilities when they do not bother to listen to us.
I ask you, my dear friends, what should we do ......
He spread his arms out in a gesture allmost asking for people to make a desesion right there
Should we continue to discuss among ourselves, and let them control our freedom,
or find an overall goal, so we can get our real freedom back, is it in your interest that we think together and help each other, forget old enmities and focused on the future, for our children and for our families, for our friends, for those who paid the ultimate price.

I have many suggestions and ideas, and I hope you have the same,but think the first decision should be whether we shouldre-establish a Council, or live with our limited freedom.the choice is ours, let's take a short pouse to think, and enjoy the wonderful garden, who knows if this is the last time that we will be here, with these words I will stop, thanks for listening.
Thomas goes down from the podium and begins to go back where he came from, and sits down. he looks first at Mojo and so on Voncloud,smiles at both and say. "There was so much to say and I was so nervous"He takes a sip of water and eat a little fruit, and sits back to see people's reaction.
