Hey Can-Do: I had no idea it could be like that. However, I think there might be something caught in one of my orifices. I might not be able to meet you again for a while.

Helpless, I'm really sorry you will have to read this from the hospital. That ring was inducing a pleasure-resonance in one of your implants and you passed out while I was extracting it from your orifice.

Handyman, Penniless, Can-Do, Helpless:
It looks from your posts that you all have come into contact with a very special ring. I can't go into details, but it is vitally important that you send all copies of the rings to me AT ONCE.
--Research Scientist
004.12:08:31 Re: Give Them Back
Dear Research Scientist,
I'd like to keep this ring for a while, if you don't mind. I can't identify the metal it is composed of. Can you tell me more about it?

-High Earth Orbit (HEO) Station Public Announcement-
If you find a ring-shaped object in your possession, do not touch it. The D'ohrahd have warned that the ring is a living being and will reproduce under humid conditions. It is also a sacred component of the D'ohrahd religion, and should be treated with the utmost respect. For humans, contact with the ring causes hallucinations, dizziness, and severe dehydration possibly leading to death.
004.23:45:10 About that Public Announcement
They forgot to mention the feelings of massive euphoria and the addictive qualities.

004.23:48:50 Re:Re: About that Public Announcement
Obviously, you do not scan the news feeds. From HEO E-REPORTS:
". . .the ring-shaped object, which grows and shrinks according to its environment, is an alien organism that lives in symbiosis with the D'ohrahd in the ecosystems of their bodies. The surface proteins are intoxicants to humans and are absorbed through the skin. They will not survive away from the D'ohrahd."
In case you did not get the point:
If you have a ring you should RETURN IT AT ONCE before it dies!
--Research Scientist
PS I was not "in jail." I went voluntarily to the police to help in their investigation of the ring problem.
004.23:49:46 Re:Re:Re: About that Public Announcement
So how did you come to be in contact with this alien organism in the first place? "Special" alien relations?

-High Earth Orbit (HEO) Station Public Announcement-
The D'ohrahd have issued a public statement that they are profoundly offended by the illicit use of the ring organism at the station. They have warned that they will abandon the station and Earth and never return unless the humans return all the sacred organisms at once. Please note that the organisms will die unless returned to the D'ohrahd. If you currently possess one, return it immediately to proper authorities.
