   MR. SMITH: Well, Yuri, tell me about it.
& T$ V+ K5 V2 {7 }2 Q7 g) r  YURI: I'm sorry I can’t bring better news, sir. The site is a disaster.+ k: V" a2 A5 U3 M
  MR. SMITH: That's what I was afraid of.
. l( T' T4 q: n2 \2 m8 c  YURI: It is not only the earthquake, sir. But the mudslides./ @5 @7 P  R# v: ]5 [$ J- ]
  Much of the north half of the site has been covered over by mud.5 M$ _/ N, B' N+ \3 b
  MR. SMITH: Mud? But Ivan told me there were no mudslides in that district.
* ~: p9 ^; F$ Z# |3 a  I thought all the mudslides were down in Chichitango.; r5 E1 R9 ^0 {$ N, z
  YURI: That's what we thought, sir. That’s what the news reported.
2 b, W; G' n: i0 u: W7 y  But there was one little mudslide in our district too. Right above our site.. G( B5 ^# F' C
  MR. SMITH: Oh, that's terrible! What bad luck!9 a, L' D4 }/ y9 V, q
  I wish we had never come to this country., C+ z9 ]; M, J/ b2 g5 `
  But, if it isn't the strikes and the revolutionaries, it’s the earthquakes.
( |! R( ^# a+ M1 g6 c) N* c  Our operations here are finished!1 i! t* E4 I) o3 d
  YURI: I'm sorry, sir.

  But tell me. When will Ivan be able to get out there?4 E( N) U8 I. Q+ Q8 f# \
  YURI: Well, it took me about nine hours to get back here by car.
0 f: Y2 V& V3 \7 m  If Ivan leaves tonight, I think he should be there by tomorrow lunch.& U1 l6 z; ?7 E# T! ~
  MR. SMITH: Good. I want an estimate of damages as soon as possible.& ~( k/ j  ~) \  V$ ]( T, b
  YURI: But sir……- C$ D+ ^' K5 ^
  MR. SMITH: Yes, Yuri?( o' l0 ~8 v: [( ~3 O5 f- \
  YURI: I wouldn't recommend sending Ivan now.
6 v: U) ~9 R- C4 ~3 e6 X9 p* z5 v  Especially not at night. The roads aren't safe.
5 t9 k  n. n& K  MR. SMITH: Has the earthquake damaged the bridges too?, v! J% E$ @. f6 {. m7 h! G
  YURI: No, sir. The bridges are fine.3 S; z# d' `/ s- u
  But I've heard rumors that the revolutionaries are coming down from the mountains.# A( R3 v4 \0 l* w. {
  There has been fighting, sir.
7 b% U7 D0 O+ I* c& q8 _# E  MR. SMITH: Are you serious? Fighting? But I didn't hear anything on the news.7 P: H5 Z& z! S' e

/ ?4 h) K0 G7 s0 Z) Y- Y1 L  MR. SMITH: Oh, this is terrible, Yuri. Terrible!* E& {+ n% Y  R/ g, p9 |( C4 f5 n
  So we can't even assess the damages. How can we do business in this country?
8 o$ S( |" h0 w: S1 c  Either we're buried under mud, or we’re in danger of getting kidnapped.

  YURI: I'm sorry, sir.8 E3 A9 d' Z' F0 E- z7 `
  MR. SMITH: You don't have to keep saying that, Yuri. It’s not your fault.
2 N7 [; D# _8 ^" o' j* H  But me——I'm the one who should be sorry./ g" [, B  l6 B7 V! q
  It was me who suggested operations here in the first place! Oh, what can we do?
