It's used here. ------------------------------------- Pun-ishment 29 by Rob Morris ENTERPRISE, 2154 The Agita-Xindi were fully telepathic, speaking only by thought. "Discrimination from our brethren has made them our enemies." But Captain Archer had his doubts, and swore that, every so often, the Agita-Xindi would speak to him verbally, though no one else heard this. "You will break and be doubted by your own people." But even Tucker was leery of Archer's accusations. "Sir, there's just no way they're saying anything at all. We'dve heard. We still have ears." "Trip, they're playing with me." "Cap'n, all they can muster verbally is a hoarse grunting." "But I'm telling you, the hoarse can talk!"
