Lol - you know i just said that to make you happy!

The thing about ts feelings - actually i agree with you. I only meant that the client should for the clients own sake act as if they exist and matter. As if the t were a human being. Because - speaking for myself - its the only chance i got that someone would respond attentively and instructively, which was my reason for doing t. To learn to be an interactive human. To get an emotion chip, as lt cmdr Data might put it, on Star Trek TNG.
