Saytek Medical They say their research focuses on 'the health issues of the 22nd century'. Should be 23rd, no?

Captain Malloy s/I friend told/A friend told/ s/where we try to keep this from rotting out its underbelly./where we try to keep spies from rotting out its underbelly/ (or maybe you meant something else, but _this_ doesn't make sense) And all the 'Sargeant' references need to have their spelling changed to this.

It looks to me as if you don't know the rule about this. If you want to indicate a long pause, as if for thought, say for selecting how to phrase something, then you want the next word in lower case. If you capitalise the word, then the way that reads is that the first sentence was left uncompleted, and a new sentence began, with the characteristic raising of the voice that we do when we start new sentences (in English).
so ... 'BraveStar always has an interest in its .... competition.'
but
'If we weren't so damned competitive, so constantly at each others .... Competition isn't always positive, you know!'
does this make sense?
There are exceptions. If the word that follows the pause is one that is always capitalised, then, yes, it's always capitalised.
'I think I can make it on ..... Tuesday.'

Brave Star Offices
s/backroom/back room/
Actually, either is fine, but you need to be consistent. The dialogs here use the word both with and without the space. You need to decide which way you want to spell it and then attack the whole corpus changing them all to be whatever is decided. I think I am seeing far more 'back room' with the space, if it matters. And I saw one 'back-room' somewhere, I forget where now, which I have already posted as needing to be 'back room'.

Agent DX-Suit Change to: Even though constructed of nanoceramic materials, this type of body armor remains light and semi-flexible. This allows soldiers to be more mobile, and doesn't hinder them when running or aiming their weapons. (Neat idea for armour, by the way. I am going to try it now. For once, Mars Corp does not get my business. ) The Hades Hardsuit uses the same description, so it should be changed to the above as well. Though it actually does hinder you when dodging. Same for the AzTek Jaguar Armou, whose text should change to the above as well.
