SERVER SPACE

Dad was initially leery about housing the Hare-Link equipment inside Tree, which was understandable since Tree was slow in learning the ethics of our society. According to Tree, the very concept of ethics is foreign to plant life; it’s just that Tree’s intelligence and power of speech mean her actions have greater impact than that of other vegetation, including Daisy.
This led to some dangerous events before she gained our trust. Dad was the last to come around, owning to his protectiveness of me. Allowing her to keep his company’s important assets was a leap of faith for him.
Now she’s here at Beige U. (Yes, I’m writing this from inside her.) and Dad needed a new place for the equipment back home. In fact, he required extra space because Hare-Link turned out to be the hero of the flood. It was the city’s wifi that we installed for its emergency communications that allowed the various departments to flawlessly work together, with the result that no lives were lost. Not even earthworms.
The natural solution to the problem was the Fennec Boarding House. Ralph and Martha still have lots of empty space, and they’re even closer than Tree was. It was decided to use one of the unoccupied floors in the wing that George Fennec used to inhabit before the divorce.
Fenton and I helped move the equipment and set everything up. The boarding house residents all say that that their Internet connections are stronger, but that’s sort of a placebo effect; the signal’s point of origin hasn’t changed. I’m not correcting them, though!
