i don't suppose you'd take it on my recommendation to hire matoi, would you?

[hey_capn_jack]

...what?

[der_weevilkonig]

she's effectively working as torchwood anyway. and stealing my journal whenever she needs to know what i'm up to.

[hey_capn_jack]

I feel like I should have more questions about this than I do.

I'll have to actually talk to her and vet her, you know.

How many refugees are we talking about, at least for the initial influx?

In terms of access control, magnetic card swipe is probably the way to go if we can get it. For one thing, it allows us to log who is entering what rooms and when. Key code locks are all right, but there's always the chance that the combination could get out. For areas we're not currently using, such as some of the upper floors, it would probably be okay just to install regular locks.

Unfortunately, I don't have the technical know-how to install electronic systems, so I'll leave that part up to Mercury.

{{...and pretend this is an estimate of the number of displaced wanderers.}}

With room for growth.

Cardswipe should see us through, at the very least initially. We might want to combine it with a secondary failsafe somewhere down the road, but I've got no problem with gradual improvements once we have something to improve on.

All right. I'll make sure we've got enough rooms ready and I'll start stocking up on kitchen supplies.

It's too bad cheap, reliable biometrics are still a couple years off. I don't entirely trust the systems that are available right now.

[hey_capn_jack]

Well, there's always the Torchwood way: point the resident techhead at whatever's fallen through the Rift recently and tell them to get cracking.

[elashte]

Of course, you have whatever assistance I can offer. I can easily coordinate on Ms. Hongo in the acquisition of supplies.

[hey_capn_jack]

Thanks. That'd help.
