In the previous post of mine, Shar was contacted telepathicly by.. himself. Shar (the Present Shar) is not telepathic at all. I'm figuring that the telepathic abilitys shown by his future self only apply to him, not others, unless perhaps he perfected his latent Romulan abilities or was taught to do so by another telepath. The offspring... well, that depends on if Shar mated with a telepathic species or not. Just wanted to make sure that was clear that OUR Shar can't do this ;-) Angus/Shar ************************************************************* USS Vanguard: http://ncv80221.netfirms.com/default.htm Vanguard Archives: //www.freelists.org/archives/ncv80221 Gamma Fleet: http://gammafleet.trekplayer.com/ FreeLists: //www.freelists.org *************************************************************
