Moore responded, "Louis, please contact Giordano's Construction Company for me.  Tell them it is urgent!" The Professor then paced the room while Louis worked the telephone switchboard to ring the company.  Once a manager answered, Moore hurriedly told him of the missing items, asked a few questions and responded numerous times with "Yes, I understand,", then hung up."Well gentlemen," announced the Professor, "apparently the dynamite and blasting caps cannot be shipped to us until we obtain a New Jersey license.  The manager mentioned that he sent several letters to Commander Starkweather advising him of this, but he has not responded.  I'm afraid that I'll need to travel to Newark in the morning and fill out the appropriate paperwork."That does not, however, explain what happened to the coils of time blasting fuse which were shipped by Giordano's long ago to the dock.  We'll need to investigate further," said Professor Moore with a puzzled look.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Job (the tortured one).</blockquote>
