Kat sits back and lets the guys talk, unconsciously agreeing with Gwerf's
assessment of his language.  Kat agrees with Dr. Gwerf's assessment of the
Solomani background (dealing with Sols, being one, and linguistic skil) and
wonders if this new guy will be joining the group.  Was it a coincidence
that we lost Karl and this guy is just around the corner.  Could be.  After
all, crews come and go on ships.  That's why everybody hangs out in these
places searching for jobs.  Kat gets a thoughtful look on her face as
figures her relationship with Karl is truely done and over with now.  It
started with coffee inbetween jobs and now has ended with coffee.  A nicely
closed circle.  She sighs and is quite for a bit.
