Like I said in the thread, I had a feeling that you were going to go ahead and retire. But we can still use you over here - I got a lot of Sammies that are still wet behind the ears, and things haven't been quite the same since Anika ascended the Crystal Throne.
I'm not saying that we need you as a Troubleshooter. We got people for that. But contrary to what some people think, your experience is utterly indispensible. We'll need that for the next Big Bad that rears its head - it's not a matter of if, but when.
You know me, Jet. I may be one of the biggest optimists out there, but I'm also as pragmatic as can be without killing the dream. I may not have been out there with you, but you know I've seen all the reports. And because of that, I will always hope for the best from humanity, but at the same time I will always prepare for the worst.
Don't reply right away. Take your time. Sleep on it. But please do get back to me. You know I'm willing to work out all kinds of arrangements - even flying the n00bs out to Genarios or Frigga or even Mars. You've seen that if there's something makes things better for people out here, then there's very little I won't do to make it happen.
