Mind you, Jim Brass was nowhere near the area (and, for that matter, was probably in junior high school at the time), so that would hardly count as one of the five times in his career Chief Inspector Brass has heard Grissom say it - which is what the passage in Outward Trajectory actually says. Personally, I suspect Grissom has said some variant on that phrase dozens of times over the long arc of his career.
