Subject: so I find myself with a quandary...

I'm planning a trip to Mongolia next week - of these investigatory things Elpis does from time to time, just to get a sense of the status of the mutant question in various regions. The problem is, I don't speak a word of any of the Mongolian languages. Nor does anyone here in Tel Aviv, and we're having a hell of a time finding a translator to hire.

I don't know what kind of a schedule you've got for the next couple of weeks, but if you could see your way clear to freeing up several days, I'd make it worth your while. Plus it's a part of the world not many people get to see. Might be interesting.

(I'd add a 'no terrorists' guarantee, but I'm afraid I'd be laughed at.)

Hi! This is Doug's Blackberry. Doug hasn't emailed you back in 12 hours, so a subroutine has generated this autoreply to let you know that Doug is doing one (or more) of the following:

-proving that penguins are the fourth sentient species on this planet
-fighting cheese demons
-investigating whether Elvis really IS alive in Tacoma
-throwing more DoTs
-foiling a megalomaniac's plan to hold the world for one million dollars ransom with a giant "laser"
-on vacation where his girlfriend has hidden the Blackberry

Anyways, consider this a promise that your email is waiting for him, and he'll get back to you as soon as he possibly can.
