[QUOTE]Originally posted by Ryan McReynolds: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [qb]I'm surprised that no one has mentioned the fact that the Enterprise has ship-to-ship visual communication.[/qb] [/QUOTE] Since we can have ship-to-ship visual communication now, I'm surprised you [i]have[/i] mentioned it. :) [QUOTE]Originally posted by Dukhat: [qb]I could have sworn that Spock pointed out in "Balance of Terror" that Romulan War-era Earth forces did not have this capability.[/qb] [/QUOTE] You're mistaken. He said that the two sides never saw each other face to face. He also said that the treaty was negotiated by subspace radio. He never gave any indication that either side actually lacked the capacity for visual communication. That would be rather silly, since we had that capability even in the sixties. There is nothing that makes video any more difficult to transmit than audio. For that matter, based solely on Spock's statements, it is entirely possible that they [i]used[/i] visual communication, and the Romulans just wore helmets the whole time. :p [/QB][/QUOTE]
