CHARACTER · THE DIVIDE

Based on Paul Evans: The Divide. Introductory reference only; major discoveries and outcomes are omitted.

A commercial point of view

A technical proposal includes more than whether a component can do a job. The terms under which it is supplied also matter to the people responsible for keeping a habitat running. Joss introduces that commercial language into Paul’s working world.

His entry is separate from Joss (agricultural extension). Sharing a first name is not enough to establish that two appearances identify the same person.
