George E. Rolf, CEO, DSE
LOCATION: Susquehanna Station, Cortez
SUBJECT: Your Copper Import & DSE Ops

Well, I'm glad to hear it's all being kept above board. I'll tell you though, Scottsdale charges a larger premium than my own streamlined operation at Susquehanna. I've heard mutterings of downscaling once the investment dries up, but who knows... What I can assure you of is a better deal on the ore and the refined material at our station in Curacao orbit. If you do plan to stop as Suquehanna, feel free to visit Ricketts'. First drink is on the house.

Regarding your assistance - I'll keep it in mind next time we're planning a large order. In fact, if you can spare some of your people, we're already planning an expansion into Pennsylvania. The op is at the pre-supply stage, so we welcome any cooperation from our Liberty-based partners, and we pay well. But if you'd rather continue with the safer ops for now - no skin off my back.

Rolf out.

First, farthest, fearless.
