Nwabudike Morgan. Of course. How could the experience of Planet be complete without everyone's favorite philosopher-hedonist? A powerful mind, a force of personality that took him from a containment cell to full Council membership almost before anyone noticed. At least he had the good sense to vote with me on the decision to abandon the Unity in landing pods rather than attempt to save it—a man not bound by petty morality. But still, his eyes cannot truly see. The flow of currency, the laws of supply and demand, these are the forces that absorb his attention. I look beyond, only the laws of physics and thermodynamics, the fundamental elements of the universe, concern me. And even they cannot bar my path forever...

Of course this unwarranted intrusion into my Network has been investigated and dealt with. My head Network Advisor at Ivory Tower informs me that nearly fifty of his datatechs are possible suspects in allowing Morgan access to my files. In related news, although my Psych Advisor claims that her prototype Nerve Stapler device still has long-lasting effects much too extreme to allow it to be used on the general population, she now has an additional 47 test subjects on which to conduct her experiments. For some reason she protested at this magnanimous gesture on my part, something about "unnecessary casualties" and "innocent people". Why can they not see as I see? Only hard science, pure science can be allowed on this new world. I have instructed her of the virtues of scientific rigor, noting that an experiment that fails to produce suitable results forty-seven times may well succeed on the forty-eighth, reminding her of Edison's efforts with the lightbulb filament. For some reason the woman became quite pale.

Personal Note: Instruct Nutrient Advisor to increase Vitamin D supplements for all lab personnel, as some seem to be suffering from a mild melanin deficiency.
