The Society Calibrates universal time amongst inhabited worlds within their aegis.

Your pleas to the Society are akin to asking bankers to step up and put a stop to businesses which they’ve made substantial loans to.

Of all the investment opportunities available to species more advanced than your own, calibrated time is the most valuable.

Sorry, my friend. But genetics is secondary on the list. Those metals formed from the colliding of neutron stars have lost their luster.

Your notions of “Judgment Day” are quaint. But such things do not involve the angels and demons of your religious familiarity as much as they do those whose technological and scientific prowess create the illusory power of gods.

“Money” answers all things. You are “product. ” Despite the brutal frankness of these truths, we are not your enemies. We are a stabilizing force that has to work against your own destructive natures.

Look around you. The great speeches by such illuminated primates such as Sir William Crookes would fall on deaf ears today.

You would not even have been born for global famine would have prohibited your very existence.
It is the failure of humanity as nation states to deal effectively with modernity that is the stumbling block to your progress—not us.

Accept the challenge. . . . Or fail. It’s entirely up to you.

Calibration
Calibration is the process of finding a relationship between two quantities that are unknown (when the measurable quantities are not given a particular value for the amount considered or found a standard for the quantity). When one of quantity is known, which is made or set with one device, another measurement is made as similar way as possible with the first device using a second device.The measurable quantities may differ in two devices which are equivalent. The device with the known or assigned correctness is called the standard. The second device is the unit under test, test instrument, or any of several other names for the device being calibrated.
