Trent bitches too much.

I've found that the person who wrote those journal entries didn't actually have much of a grasp of Trent's character. He's far too bitchy and weird in what he writes.

Still, being British, I should probably side with the ME-thane lobbyists. But I really don't care. I say both, and accept both, and life goes on.

ALU-min-um, AL-U-min-ium. Eh. It's all good.

Actually, I took the journal entries as Trent's real attitude towards things. He's tactful and diplomatic enough not to complain to anyone's face, but he's pretty annoyed and PO'ed about the whole thing.

It boils over for him on that one line later on about "as long as I don't get shot at, burned, attacked" etc.

Trent's not a bitchy guy, he just wants to get on with his freelancing career and is tired of everyone telling him what he has to do. (Which is also how I feel myself during most of the campaign missions.

)

Oh and remember that bit just after the arch mission, his true character shows then as well.

the me-thane (Yes, me-thane) field is all wrong anyway, for methane to "Explode" like that it is in effect reacting with OXYGEN! unelss its an Oxygen and Methane field that just would not happen.

One thing that anoyed me was the way Juni said "Bu-ey" lol, everyone knows its just pronounced "Boy".

Actually, like Meth ane, both pronunciations are coorect, take a look:

Main Entry: 1buoy
Pronunciation: 'bü-E, 'boi
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English boye, probably from Middle Dutch boeye; akin to Old High German bouhhan sign -- more at BEACON
Date: 13th century
1 : FLOAT 2; especially : a floating object moored to the bottom to mark a channel or something (as a shoal) lying under the water
2 : LIFE BUOY

There are only 10 kinds of people in the world:
those who understand binary, and those who don't.
