Time Anomalies Discovered

The Sigma Signal has learned that recent protests by members of CamTim have prompted officials of Sigma Station to investigate certain time/space anomalies that have apparently been plaguing the station's Core.

CamTim's campaign to raise awareness of the different time standards at use throughout the galaxy had moved Station officials to put together a presentation designed to highlight the reliability and integrity of the Core's internal systems.

However, according to a station official who wishes to remain anonymous, Core Security staff noticed certain discrepancies in the Core's clock which may have impacted time and date stamps on various systems that rely on the Core to function, including share trading, Mud Wide Web terminals and even MUD mail terminals.  In some cases, Station documents showed as much as a five year gap in communications.

Some investigators attached to the inquiry have put forward the theory that the Station may have been bombarded by ionized particles or a proton storm that could have caused some sort of electronic interference in the Core's systems.  When approached for comment on the issue, Station Commander duncanj refused to make any official statement, but he was overheard to be mumbling something about "berries" and "pie" as he hurried into his office and locked the door.
