Description
MEMO TO ALL DEPARTMENTS:First of all, congratulations to the Alternative Energy Department for their breakthrough. Doctor Hamilton, among others, of course, has found a most efficient way of controlling plasma. I believe that this discovery will be of great importance in the future. While I usually donβt condone the behavior that occurred at the celebratory party last night, I believe that those in question deserve a bit of a break in that regard. After all, they are on the verge of breaking the human race free from the chains of fossil fuels... what's a bit of line-toeing behavior compared to that?
Secondly, today marks the launch of our new computer system. The Materas Analysis Yoke Operating System, or MAY OS, should resolve many of the problems we have had since the inception of this facility. MAYβs fundamental purpose is to link every computer in every department to each other, making data transfer a much cleaner, simpler, and easier affair. It is my personal belief that the entire laboratory needs to work as a single being, rather than the divided departments we currently have. MAY will help to resolve this issue, and hopefully allow for much more work to be done faster.
Finally, I have been hard at work in the Bionics Department, and I can report to all of you that we are very close to a true real-time interface with the human brain. I regret to say that I cannot give out any real details at this time, but I can say that it will provide many advances in both the medical and military sectors, assuring us adequate funding. I would like to take this time to thank all of our volunteers who have made this discovery possible through their dedication to progress and science. If you see a test subject today, please remember to thank them. They are invaluable to our research, and many of them ask nothing in return.
Sincerely,
Doctor Edaniel Materas

The fact that the dude's name is Edaniel makes me all smiley go. Still, as far as memos go, it's intriguing!

Could I ask why his name makes you all smiley?
Are you reading the rest of my stuff? It's all related, so you might want to check it out.
And of course, I always want more regular readers!

I've been trying to go back and read the rest, but haven't had time to cover it all just yet!
It just makes me smiley because Edaniel is the name of a small green cat in Bizenghast, the graphic novel series that I write. So every time I read that name, I think of a grinning green cat. XD

they can indeed. Green cats and memo-writing official types everywhere have yet another thing in common! I'm pretty sure that makes FOUR things now! XD

Dr. Materas is a bit of a sentimental guy. He names his major inventions after his daughters. The energy breakthrough he's referring to is a reactor which uses a technique called Practical ENergy from LOcal Plasma Excitement. Guess what he named his youngest daughter?

Everyone does them. Hence why they're typos.

Disaster? I have a feeling this is going to come into the story later.
Nice piece!

I shan't say anything except that you're completely right.
