The Shadallhawk Not Only Technology Stories Service is proud to bring you our first broadcast in the new universe!
Greetings to all you eclectic races out there in the Universe, this is Shadallstumph, reporting from the command centre of the Shadallhawk's Universal Construction Survey group here on A'po.
I have with me today Edgar Shadallsnick, head of the S.U.C.S. group. So what kind of information do you have for us today Edgar?
Edgar: OH we have all kinds of exciting information to share today! Our surveyors have tramped through all kinds of data to find out all kinds of things about the Universe.
Shadallstumph: Well, that is good to hear. What are you going to tell us first?
Edgar: There has been a significant increase in the number of factories built this year, although the rate of production is still lower than expected. We were quite surprised at the numbers and think that the increase is probably due to burgeoning populations, although we do not have any numbers yet on the universe's population. Maybe in a few years time our surveyors will have that figured out.
Shadallstumph: Not to rush you Edgar, but this is a government funded show, so we have limited time. Can you give me an idea of how many factories were built throughout the Universe last year.
Edgar: Oh, right. Let me see {shuffle... shuffle} ah, here it is. It looks like the different races in the Universe last year built 117 factories.
Shadallstumph: Hmmm... that is quite interesting. So that would be... aproximately how many per race?
Edgar: Well, we do not keep details on who has built how many, but as there are 13 races in the Universe (the Shadallhawks included) that would work out to nine factories per race.
Shadallstumph: That does not sound like very many!
Edgar: No, actually it does not, and it is especially interesting when compared with the fact that 373 mines were built this year.
Shadallstumph: Three hundred seventy three mines?
Edgar: That is correct. That would work out to about 28.692307...
Shadallstumph: We get the idea.
Edgar: Ah yes, sorry, got carried away there. The last statistic that we managed to collect this year was on the number of ships built by the different races. There were only fourteen ships built this year.
Shadallstumph: Thank you for your time Edgar, we have to sign off now, but thank you for your time. We look forward to checking in with you in the near future.
Edgar: Any time.
Shadallstumph: Good year to you all folks and we look forward to reporting to you in the future.
This is Shadallstumph signing off for another year.
