 How does Pat feel about the narrator?
He is kind of squat, with a vulturish neck and close-set jet-black eyes that make him look rather mean, but he was pleasant enough, and said I could call him Pat. I still don't know Jones' first name, though Pat spoke to him, and it sounded like Flants. No sign of canals, but Pat says that's because of the dust storm down below. He's all for going out and looking for lichen, but Pat says he's got to set up camp, then get instructions from Earth. Pat gave him a cigar he'd smuggled on board (no smoking was allowed on the ship), and Jones threw it away. "Where," said Jones, "are Pat and Kroger?"
