04 · FIELD REPORTS
What they're saying.
Extremely dependable. We schedule everything around it and it has never once been late.
Great for howling.
Beautiful. But I walked home last night and it followed me the entire way.
Worth the trip.
Blocked the Sun in the middle of my afternoon. No warning apart from centuries of precise astronomical tables.
We tried competing. We are a potato-shaped rock the size of a city. It has not been easy.
