Anyway, I haven't contacted you just to congratulate you on the success of the modified extrusion. Have you been able to determine if the dominant species has been able to continue in spite of the loss of the subgroup17? Personally, I can't imagine life without my little friend. I feel sorry for them, now, in a way that I couldn't have imagined before. XLTD319

To XLTD319: You will be pleased to know that the major species of Object-Er99 has not been eradicated due to the extraction. They did have several major setbacks, such as the laughable attempts at building defenses and offenses against a future assault from us. Of course, they only succeeded in damaging each other with those feeble explode-y things. They have attempted to clone replacements from leftover fur (I'm sure you are familiar with that item by now. Remind me to send you some sticky tape; it works wonders on the clutch pads). Their cloning attempts are still unsuccessful, but we've formed a new committee to formulate a message containing the needed information in terms they might understand. The most surprising development, however, is the observation of a new version of subgroup17, as descended from species W074m, which you can see from the original ranking, is down on the list but is now believed to be the precursor subgroup17.

To XMNR1118: Please continue to observe and report, but do not prepare extraction plans. Subgroup17 has done so much for us. And since we have the dominant species to thank, perhaps we can allow them a reprieve. For now. XLTD319
