Intercepted GDI Transmission regarding secret Tacitus Research

To:?? Dr. Johan Hannes-Schmidt, Director of Tacitus Research, [Location Redacted]

From:?? Theodore M. Bynes, Director, Department of Covert R&D, Washington DC, USA

Johan,

Firstly, let me state that I have every level of respect for the excellence and professionalism of you and your staff. There is no finer research team operating in this country, if not the world. Now, with that said, I have some major concerns regarding your most recent enterprise. Simply put, the latest reports from your facility regarding the Tacitus' stability disturb me - and the Council - to no end.

To hear that the device is estimated as having a 15% chance of self-destruction, with the chance increasing with each test run, is just not acceptable. Look, I understand that you are operating in unknown territory here, but I need to be very clear about one thing - if you are doing anything that risks the stability of the Tacitus, anything at all, you must STOP, immediately.

I'm sorry to speak so strongly, but we cannot risk losing the device. Too many people died to secure it, we have no idea how dangerous the Tacitus' destruction would be and, most importantly, there is no way it can be replaced. In short, to risk the device is to risk everything that we've worked to achieve.

I'll be flying out to discuss this with you Monday. Until then, kid gloves.

Sincerely,

Theo

攔截GDI關于神秘塔西佗研究的信息

Johan,

首先，我要聲明的是，我全方位尊重您和您的員工的杰出和專業(yè)精神。在這個國家，甚至全世界都沒有比這更好的研究團隊了?，F(xiàn)在，雖然是這么說，我有些關于您最近事業(yè)上的嚴重問題。簡單地說，從您研究所傳來的關于塔西佗穩(wěn)定性的最新報告讓我——和議會——焦慮個沒完。

聽說這個裝置估計有15%的概率自毀，而且這個概率還會隨著每次測試運行增加，這沒法接受。聽著，我理解你們是在探索未知的領域，但是我必須說清楚一件事—如果你們在做任何會危害到塔西佗穩(wěn)定性的東西，不管是什么，你必須馬上停下來。

我很抱歉說的這么堅決，但我們不能冒險失去這個裝置。太多的人為了搞到它而死了，我們不知道毀掉塔西佗有多危險，最重要的是，它只有這一個?？傊?，拿裝置冒險就是拿我們的一切努力冒險。

我周一會飛過去跟你討論這個問題。在這之前，小心謹慎。

真摯的，

Theo
