yes I know. but one box while it may hold information on it, depending on who the person it is who is being told may call you crazy for bunch of flying space squids going around and killing everything....(It is weird when I say it like that)
 But yes you can know doesn't necessarily mean the entire galaxy knows. For many reasons. For some it may be like a story or a movie, or something (not sure people would believe that but then again I am friends with many an idiot who are Kelso Levels of stupid) . English may not be a language at this point, so we may have guide to killing said squids but we may not understand it. ( on the subject of a common language just assume there is one at this point.)
I am not saying you can't have one even understand it, just find a way that realistically you know these things. (I realize as I said that I was talking about flying squids before...) If you do that then you can be the herald of the up coming galactic Apocalypse and no I while it may seem sarcastic I am serious you can be the only one that knows anything at this point if the reason is good enough. if not well you still got a cool box...that's a plus right? that shows a blue lady and a squid.  and you can do what you want with it, research it, use it as a foot stool, go to other players and do a thing with them with it.
