TELEPHONE TRANSCRIPT, Central Exchange Monitoring, August 12th, 1964
Hi there! Doctor Cooke? This is Tobias Barlow, from maintenance! I think I know why your field equipment is missing and, uh, you're not going to like this.
So me and a bunch of the folks doing requisition and inventory have been losing gear, too. But also finding it again, later, in different areas of the Zone. We thought we lost some to high winds, then some to, y'know, scrambling. But the weather's been pretty normal and we realized the Zone hasn't had a tantrum in a while. So we did a kinda stakeout, we left some old gear at a test site and ...
You won't believe it. These things are like gooey fireflies, or will-o'-the-wisps or somethin'! they come out the trees and kind of band together. They grab stuff like magpies, and then pass it around like, uh ... a football team! Anyway, I know you scientists want to know about this tuff, so I figured I'd take notes. There's, uh, quite a lot! I did some sketches, took some numbers. And I repeated things, like in an experiment! I figured you might want to see, so mind if I drop this stuff by? Those Pneumatubes are malfunctioning again.
