With I-S out for our blood and a Patrol warn-off it won't do us any good to head for Luna " None of his listeners could argue with that. And, Dane's spirits began to rise, after all they knew so little about the Big Burn it might afford them just the temporary sanctuary they needed.
"That law was framed when only the Patrol had such stations. Companies put them in later to save tax remember? Legally we're all right." "Unless the agents on duty raise a howl," Ali amended. "Oh, don't give me that look, Rip. I'm not sounding any warn-off on this, but I just want you to be prepared to find a cruiser riding our fins and giving us the hot flash as bandits.

"Solar Queen?" "You got the warn-off then?" "Who didn't?
"We're not going to remain space borne," he stated with the confidence of one who now saw an open road before him. "Luna " Weeks was plainly doubtful. "No. Not after that warn-off. Terra!" For a second or two the other three stared at Rip agape. The audacity and danger of what he suggested was a little stunning.
