I meant without electricity, but I see your point. I dunno what this 'prime directive', but there is a rule that restricts contact. A friend of mine is a real square about it and he's probably trying to figure out what to do with it as we talk....but, I figure that the rules from home don't really apply here.

Aah. And you mean problems like war, pollution, overpopulation...and little things like who the next governor's gonna be, right?
