The Petition of the Shetland

[Neronian]

Mr. Seldon. When I said my last statement I was talking about stations near Gaia. I also advise you to calm down on your accusations about Planetform. It is in my knowledge that Planetform has no right to land at Gaia even. Cambridge science teams and the Shetland's "tourists" are the only civilians to land there. Any others become a basic legality issue and will be dealt with. And here's an idea.. How about you take tourists down IN YOUR OWN SHIPS. I think the fact of letting rich entrepreneurs swoop down after paying you allows this kind of thing to happen. I am not an opponent of Planetform in anyway, But frankly they have No business whatsoever in Gaia. It is a planet of tremendous beauty and in my opinion to stay that way we have to keep away... No one's asking OSC to "check every cargo hold" 'cause there shouldn't BE any other cargo hold's to begin with. If people want to visit this place, feel free, but I say hands off mates. On a final note, No one is asking OSC to 'Fight' Planetform anyways.. Planetform is a corporation that terraforms planets, and whatever has happened in Gaia has taken so long that I don't think it can be replicated. So to Planetform, just mind to your work please.

Mr. Knight. Before I get to hastily in this one, I'd like to give you a chance to explain how the removal of the Shetland Could harm Gaia. However, I will comment again that this has almost nothing to do with the Gaians, this is a matter of preserving this planet before it gets disrupted by humanity, and to prevent other planets from having these "perfect wildlife" spread all over disrupting the planets WE LIVE ON. You are also speaking in Hypothetical's. Dublin is a system with only a few strong assets, one of being the BMM's Field. Especially in this time of war, we would not give up such a possession. Also, the Shetland is not Bretonian, so if this did "Loose our leash", then it seems like we don't have a leash in the first place. Edinburgh is a system under partial control, just like Dublin. The lawfuls keep to our side while the others stay to theirs. And what privileges are you speaking about? People here seem to be struggling to concentrate on the core issue of this. Molly's are a separate problem and are being dealt with everyday. The same goes to the Gaians. However where are the Gaians? Try only a pebbles throw away or so from Kusari. SO now I thank you for showing me the strategic potential of even limited diplomacy with the Gaians. Anyways, I await your elaboration on the supposed "Dangers" of removing the Shetland..

Sirius, I await your rebuttle..
