[Announcement system chime] Hello? Is this thing on? Blasted thing, never working when it's supposed to! There we are! Very good! Anyway, as I was saying. This is an open message for all employees currently working on the "Anti-Mass Spectrometer" project in the Anomalous Materials Lab and related departments: the Administrator has asked me to communicate a message to you all. Ahem... "Our work is of the most vital importance. It simply cannot be understated the potential impact that our research could make in all fields of science! "With this in mind, please DO NOT jeopardise our work by giving away any aspect of the project to the public. Not only could the results of information contamination affect Black Mesa's contracts to our government and military, but it could potentially allow our peers at Aperture Science to gain the upper hand in the race for publicly viable application of portal technology. "I'm talking to YOU, Dr. Kleiner. Just this once, I am allowing the accelerated training of your recommended MIT graduate, Doctor Gordon Freeman, but ONLY on the basis that his thesis paper, "Observation of Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Entanglement on Supraquantum Structures by Induction through Nonlinear Transuranic Crystal of Extremely Long Wavelength (ELW) Pulse from Mode-Locked Source Array" demonstrates his extreme potential value to our work. THIS IS AN EXCEPTION, DR. KLEINER, any further recruitment efforts for civilians will NOT be met with as much enthusiasm on my part." Oh dear. I believe this message was only for me... Oh Fi!
