[here, have a video. It's a smiling, pleasant-looking man in his mid thirties. He has the calm air of someone who has practiced saying this into the camera a few times.]

Hello, everyone. My name is Jarod DiCaprio, and I've recently taken post on board this ship along with a few new wardens. I'll begin serving on board staring just about---[he looks at his watch]---now. That's a good time to start, I think.

I look forward to meeting everyone, and I hope to hear from you soon.

I'll take a look. Maybe some of that technology you can take back home with you.

[Jarod nods] Rico and Tony end up fighting, though the story isn't entirely clear about who shoots who, only that Tony ends up the victim, and Lola is so utterly devastated by his death that she goes insane. It's as much a cautionary tale as a modern tragedy.

Even if you are made to "forget", the basic knowledge should form an imprint on your long-term memory so that you might reform the essentials. [He's not too worried about Jarod knowing. After all, he might be meant to invent something.]

It seems cautionary in many ways. There are moral implications in that the woman courted a man in what was likely an establishment indulging in many vices, and crew the attention of a powerful individual whom she did not intend. At least, from your description. I suppose that I will actually have to listen to the song and analyze the lyrics more thoroughly.

I'll see if I can simulate a deep-memory implant. It might help in the future, and might be interesting for other research.

[grin] I'll bring my walkman when I come down to engineering. Are you down there now?

Are you familiar with deep memory implants?

Not at the moment. I am in my quarters, though I will begin a shift in approximately three hours. [It's still a little difficult for him to give general times and not precise seconds.]

I read a book about them once.

Great! That's great. I'm going to head down to the medical bay to talk to Dr. Jones, but I'll come by while you're working. If it's not too much trouble.

That is agreeable. I will conduct my rounds near the front of engineering so that I may note your arrival.
