      Did you ever hear the tragedy of Tuvix The Wise? I thought not. It’s not a story the Janeway would tell you. The dark side of transporter accidents are a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing himself, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught Janeway everything he knew, then she killed him in a transporter cycle. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.

          Oh sure, blame it on the coffee - that’s what she wants you to believe! 🤣

            Lul

            (But there was a flower (orchid?) in the transporter, so the monster is actually three things together - yet somehow less than the sum of the three.)

      Not anymore… that those still alive would admit to publicly:-).

      The doctor said he had something to add, but now all he ever says is: “please state the nature of the medical emergency?”
