    Interspatial Mind-Chat With Flaar Glubnick Regarding
    Galactic Transmission Tier Buy Through
    Fleeb 88, 120,087 - 1 To 2 Flecktrons

MODERATOR: Welcome to The Pan-Galactic Mind-Channel chat with NewsCollapsar's 555's Flaar Glubnick.

MODERATOR: Flaar will be answering your questions about the the Galactic Transmission tier buy through law and how it could save you debits.

MODERATOR: This is a moderated mind-chat, so your question may not appear in everyone's mind right away. Also, if several fen ask the same question, we'll just transmit one of them up, to avoid confusion.

MODERATOR: Be sure to hit/wiggle/toggle/bump/flex/tongue/worple the "Submit to Moderator" indicator on your mind-chat interface console to send in your question, or we won't visualize it.

mmodar: Is this a new regulation or a little-known new one?

Flaar Glubnick: the law was passed in 120,086 but the mind-chat companies had 10 glabbles to comply for alot of reasons .. some technical. the grace period ended last Farbagh .. so that's why we are just hearing about it now.

mmodar: As a BrainCast subscriber (Basic Expanded Basic) I'd like to be able to pick the channels I want, but can't get rid of the likes of Altair System Shopping Planet. Would I be able to do that now?

Flaar Glubnick: yes. if you pick just the very basic service .. you will get the 2000 or so over the subspace regular network programs .. and then be able to select which premium mind-channels you want a la carte (and for a price ranging from 333 to 494 Greeples).

Groombridgeguy: question about the interference from those Frigghaulers in the Sol system!

GolangeFive: yah! we were promised in the last pan-galactic broadcast that those glecknards were going to be dealt with!

Flaar Glubnick: Now now. Nothing to panic about here. You know the Friendly Neighbor Policy the Federation of United Solar Systems has about such matters...

Groombridgeguy: But all those sentients on that blue-green gravity-pit! They're glacking up my transmission! I can't get a thing from mind-channels 567 through 1,003!!!

Flaar Glubnick: I said relax! Now as I was mentioning, the Friendly Neighbor Policy clearly states that after having attempted up to five mind-contacts with said natives of said solar system...uhhhh...Sol, right, yellow dwarf with nine planets and a large number of comets, asteroids, and moons, and other spatial debris, and potential mind chatters on third planet, Terra...if said natives refuse to answer the official questionnaire, the matter can be handled under Article 99, Provision 44.

GolangeFive: And what's that?

Flaar Glubnick: We just launched a tri-cobalt device directly into the heart of their Star. The resulting Supernova will take care of this signal interference problem once and for all.

Fleeg39: Thanks Flaar for the information, you're great!

Flaar Glubnick: thanks to all of you for participating (and putting up with my bad mind-imagery) I truly appreciate all the nice comments and hope to do this regularly on a variety of topics.

MODERATOR: Thanks everyone. We'll try to do another of these soon!

Marauder9: Thanks Flaar!

Kanamit: May the [non-translatable phenomena] be with you..ha ha ha.

MODERATOR: Good bye all!

Bilge88: Thank you again Flaar, and have a good wormhole descent.
