"We would be delighted to reconvene in your Embassy.  We are approx. 1 parsec from you, and as such will be there in about 36 hours."
(OFF:Sorry, guys.  I had a period where I couldn't access a comp.  I should be able to post regularly, though)

"We wish for a peaceful exchange of maps, scientific data, technology, and information of cultural significance in order to further our knowledge.  We also wish to establish diplomatic relations with the races we encounter, to allow the exchanges to continue.  We are sending the coordinates of our vessel now."

(OFF: We could head over to the Embassy forum and let the diplomatic staff handle it.  Or, if you'd rather, we could continue it here.  However, judging by the emptiness of your Embassy forum, there is no diplomatic staff, so I guess we'll have to do it ourselves, and then, as soon as you get a diplomatic staff, execute them for dereliction of duty http://expansionfleet.sparks.priorweb.be/ikonboard/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>)

"Very well.  One question: We are reading some strange energy signatures emanating from your ship.  They seem to be anti-meteor cannons, only thousands of times larger.  What might they be?"
(OFF: I am indicating weapons, Nimbians have absolutely no military experience and no weaponry, so naturally they would be curious. PS: What does j/k mean?)

(OFF: In which forum would this be continued?  There is no shipyard base forum)

"The Nimbian High Senate send its warm greeting to all races and wishes to speak with any who are willing."

"Ah.  Thank you for your time.  We shall be there shortly."
