Snow:

How curious! It seems like months since I've been drawn to the almost 
abandoned office and yet I feel compelled to signal a flare of some 
kind to show my presence. If only the office was once again the 
hustle and bustle of the good ole days, the days when we were young 
and full of the driven motive to set The Project afloat. 

There does seem to be a few extremely loyal devotees to The Project 
with something supporting their very existence; yes it is some type 
of floatation device that appears to be losing momentum. 

Alas, if only I could find my way into the servicing device which 
restricts me from lending a hand to attempt to help save these 
courageous devotees, together we might succeed in our initial 
endeavor. 

I notice that the Captain is back and throwing a very supportive life 
line to the devotees, so all is not lost even if I never find my way.
