Re: P5J-249: Oz
"Ha ! It's good to know that you are safe Major." replied Hammond. "Don't worry about your report, it can wait. Are there risk of new tremors incoming? If you need help to get the DHD back up online, we can send you a SG team."
'Ask him to send power source, and a bridge.' Hilda said to Kaspar, nagging into the conversation.
Kaspar turned a surprised look at Hilda, "That is an absolutely brilliant idea, Miss Hilda!" he said in his midwest-America accent, then keyed open the mic to the General.
"Ak-chooly, General," Kaspar transmitted, again switching to a thick Polish accent, "Vee are, at dee moment, on dee wrong side uff a chasm opened by dee oorth-quakes. Dee DHD is vit us, but dee Stargate iz on udder side. Vood be great adwantage if you could send engineering team vit bridging equipment tru dee gate. Uh...I vood say chasm is five, mebbe six meters vide, here."
Kaspar paused a moment and glanced back-and-forth between Hilda and Rajip, to see if they had a guess on the width of the crevasse that differed from his, then continued.
"Yes, five or six meters. Oh, und a spare DHD power krystal, if you haff vun, vood be appreciated. Over."
Kaspar removed his hand from his mic and, still looking over at the Stargate, commented to Hilda and Rajip, "Now, either he has what we need, and we're out of here in an hour-or-so, or we're probably spending the night..."
