S111 1/2

The silo ladder has become quietly popular. Oreilli, Tushabe, Ezebel, and Angi use it for strength training. The risk of falling makes me nervous, but only slightly, as all four athletes are excellent climbers, and Oreilli and Tushabe wear inertial dampers from their rock-climbing gear that reduce the impact of a fall.

I’d ask Minister Lev for dampers for the other climbers, but so far it seems the ladder is still our secret. Might as well make use of it until someone discovers the utility area’s alarms aren’t working.

Oreilli placed a homemade recording bug on the wall where Ezebel overheard the Assembly staff in the elevator. I have a feeling he has a lot of shady skills from his past in the Tally system. And if the Assembly hears about it, well, I hope I’m irreplaceable.

Mose knows what’s going on, and he wants nothing to with it. Funny that Mr. Security Breach is totally hands off now. I think he already learned what he wanted and wants no more trouble.

Oreilli says the bug hasn’t picked up much, but he did get one snippet. I listen to the recording:

** We already dropped half a billion credits on Bedrock, Izzy. You seriously concerned about a few thousand for a minor staging area update? **
