Our SSB Game/Competition continues...write a story containing World ARC Boat Names. This game was suggested by Jan on Ghost.

I received the following outstanding entry from Lucy on Peter on Adela:

First Encounter*_

Commander *Lente* and his wife *Festina* were looking out of the
observation port of the star ship *Lluiton*, on its way to *Polaris* in
the *Andromeda* cluster.

"Not since *Darwin* has such a fundamental *Nexus* occurred in the
destiny of mankind", he said.

"What if they turn out to be some sort of super *Alpharatz* or *Ghosts*
or something equally horrible", she replied.

"The tech boys speak warmly of their conversations with these aliens and
suggest we think of a cross between an *Avocet* and an elderly human - a
sort of feathery, skinny legged, white bearded,*Merlin* figure floating
in a *Pool**e*, carrying a communication device looking like a big
*Pearl* clustered with *Saphir*s, my *Sweet*", he answered with as much
reassurance as he could. "We should show true *American Spirit* and
*Celebrate* our good fortune to be in the right place at the right time".

"I still worry if it was a good idea to allow our daughter to be the one
to greet them, she is so *Free and Breezy*".

"*Boingo alive*", he exclaimed "*Adela *is old enough to look after 

herself - especially after that '*follie a deux*' with that person

"*Civetta*" on Mars last year".

"Have you made her practice the formal greeting, their language is
complicated", "yes- yes, she bows, slowly, saying '*Chika-lu*', and he,
she, it will reply '*Shaya Moya*".

"Correct", he replied "and if all goes well, the name *ADELA* will go
down in history".
