Following a discussion about a lost canoeist in the Okeefenokee area
who could not be found after several days of intensive air and ground
search and then suddenly reappears. Some locals believed he had been
beamed up by space aliens.
Let him go, Merk. Commander Vatik's order
was to bring back an earthling
of high intelligence. This is a canoeist.
His primitive mode of transport indicates
a low IQ. We need a jetskier...
