Allow me to preface this with -- Not unless you clear things with me first

I havent really put a lot of thought into how Serenity is working just
yet. Ive been pretty much playing out most of its developement on the
list.

From about the time that Freddy sent me information about how to start
a security provider (I was posting from TNO as Gunner back then) to
trying to forge a partnership with Freddy in Cal-Free and realizing that it
was harder to set up and start there than it was to get established in
Seattle THEN branch out. Getting in to bed with Knight Errant and Ares
for equipment and training. Getting loans for equipment. Getting small
business loans. Out first corporate contract (Red Lime, inc (if I remember
correctly)). The nearly total failure of that contract (we didnt have
enough people to cover 24/7 service. Hiring more people.

I guess right now we are mostly working out of our own corporate offices, prolly
in the area of Kent or Bryn Mawr with another rented location closer to down
town. I really dont know -- What did you have in mind, Jim?

[blink, blink]

Who? What? Me? [looks around for someone to point the finger at]

Have something in mind? Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha.

Um, no, why do you ask?

Seriously, just a little, ah, Breaking and Entering - for now -
leading into some minor inter-corporate espionage. You can't be one
of the big boys until you've had over-industrious deckers roaming
your system, ya know....
