Present: Zorvath the Unconquerable, Glee the Inconsequential, and Xylon the Unimpressed
The Committee convened at 3:00 PM Galactic Standard Time to discuss the colonization of Zorgon-6, a planet rumored to have the perfect ratio of sentient fungi to water.
Zorvath the Unconquerable: "I say we send a team of highly trained, genetically engineered, hyper-intelligent, ninja-robot colonizers to Zorgon-6. We can't let the native flora get a foothold on this prime piece of real estate!"
Glee the Inconsequential: "But think of the paperwork! We'll need to fill out 37 forms in triplicate, and then there's the small matter of intergalactic bureaucracy. Can we just send a strongly-worded letter instead?"
Xylon the Unimpressed: "I've read the latest issue of Galactic Colonization Quarterly. It's all about the colonization of Zorgon-6. Again. Can we just send a postcard?"
Decision: The committee voted 3-1-1 to send the team of ninja-robot colonizers, pending further review of the paperwork and intergalactic bureaucratic red tape.
Subcommittee Report:
Subcommittee members: Glee the Inconsequential, Xylon the Unimpressed, Zorvath the Unconquerable (by proxy)
Subcommittee Report: The subcommittee met in an underground bunker on the moon of a distant star. They discussed the finer points of Zorgon-6's native flora and fauna. They decided that the planet's sentient fungi were, in fact, the real colonizers, and we're just a bunch of intergalactic freeloaders.
Recommendations:
1. We should probably just let the fungi do their thing.
2. We should really consider a postcard.
