((The I’vish Gallery, Shi’Kahr District, Starbase 118))
S’zurak: ::pointing to his name on the screen, grinning:: I’m firsst on the result lisst!
Taylor: ::grinning:: it would seem so!
McLaren: Indeed. But anything about any Gorn art aboard?
S’zurak: No. I do not ssee anything about Gorn art on the sstation. Perhapss there will be an opportunity for me to convinsse a curator to allocate sspace, even if only a ssmall gallery section.
Taylor: That is odd, though. I would expect there to be something..
Sol shook her head slightly.
McLaren: Not necessarily, but it could still be possible.\
S’zurak: While we’re here and keep looking thingss up… wass there anything elsse we should ssearch?
Taylor: I might have an idea. I don’t know how it is now, but if it’s anything like it used to be, art, along with scientific and engineering equipment, is often not catalogued properly, or missing in archives. Especially when it’s done on private charter. We often had to resort to creative ways to find things.
Sol let James access the console, seeing what his idea was.
McLaren: Thats a good thought.
S’zurak: Response?
Taylor: Computer.. compile a list of shipments of non-perishables to this station that have not left this station, coming in from the Gorn sector, in the past ten years. Cross-reference the list of locations that are listed as their final destination to a list of establishments displaying art on this station, and display any matches.
Computer: Please wait, Compiling.
McLaren: Thats a lot of data to sort through.
S’zurak: Response?
Taylor: I have no idea how long this might take..
Sol was about to comment that it probably wouldn't be that long despite the amount of data the computer would have to search when the console chirped.
Computer: One match found. The Hall of Ancestral Fury, honoring primal warrior traditions.
Sol leaned over looking to see what had been found.
McLaren: Hmm, interesting.
S’zurak: Response?
Taylor: I think it would be worth checking out someday.
McLaren: I agree, it certainly is.
S’zurak: Response?
Sol cast a glance back toward the main area of the gallery, where she could see others filtering toward the theatre area.
McLaren: Hmm, looks like things are about to begin...
S'zurak/Taylor: Response?
Sol nodded, smiling.
McLaren: See you in there then.
She turned and headed off to go watch Gogi's speech.
