	(Bartnick) We want to keep the ship clean for health reasons. It's not just to keep the crew busy. We need to keep the ship clean so that we don't get roaches and so that people don't get sick from molds and fungi that grow when you have a lot of moisture.
	(Bartnick) We are having a material inspection, today. The inspection is not just for cleanliness, but also for safety. We will inspect for cleanliness, but we will also look for defects in safety equipment such as fire extinguishers and safety lights.
	(Bartnick) We're going to go forward, now, to the Operations Department birthing area.
