Xièxie nĭ, Simon. It's been quite a day, I'll admit.

Media feed, I presume?

--Gabriel

[simon_doctor]

Yes, NewsCore.

Do you have any idea how accurate those poll figures are?

-Simon

[gabriel_tam]

Which ones? I've seen some variation, but my staff have confirmed the Xijuan count to be on the mark.

--Gabriel

[simon_doctor]

That's the one I was curious about. They're usually reliable, but that was a little startling.

-Simon

[gabriel_tam]

It was, wasn't it?

We've had a lot of surprises today - but good ones, at least.

How's the news been received there?

--Gabriel

[simon_doctor]

About as you'd expect.

If by that you mean among the crew. We haven't made planetfall since hearing the news, so I can't tell you anything about the general public's reaction yet.

-Simon

[gabriel_tam]

The 'general public' response I've heard about.

At least in the Core, although I've got some sources out toward the Rim, as well.

There's some uproar, but I think a lot of positive reaction.

--Gabriel.

[simon_doctor]

It looks that way.

You did it.

-Simon

[gabriel_tam]

We did it.

--Gabriel.
