Yes, I had retired. It was definitely what was needed at the time. You know me though, I'm not the retire to waste away kind of guy. I need to stay busy. I continue to run my own businesses in space. I maintain a list of contacts for shipping delicate hard to find items. It's been my passion for quite some time and I love it. There have been many new opportunities of late. Anyway, I always maintained my credentials with the Congress, because...........well, I like Junker bases too.
You and I have many of the same interests, but then you knew that. I don't trust the house governments or their corporations. I prefer to deal with people off the grid. I also like helping those who are struggling because the influence of the houses. That's kind of why I'm here now. JT asked me to accept the position of ambassador so I could help the Congress with some difficult issues. It allows me to do some of the things I used to do without really taking my old job back. I wouldn't take that for anything. It also helps me promote some of my business interests.
So, you're working in Cassini now? I must say you are really peaking my curiosity now.
