[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] It's simple -- the Romulans were monitoring the fleet's communications. We saw Riker and Geordi on the viewscreen at one point, calling from the Excalibur. Doesn't it make sense that Data would have been at least [i]mentioned[/i] in any message between the Enterprise and the Sutherland? For instance, in today's combat situations, military intelligence can sometimes (or often) determine who the local commander of the opposing force is -- and the other side can sometimes tailor their own battle plans based on that knowledge. I remember hearing a story a while back, about one of the battles in North Africa during World War Two. An Allied general was watching the German army, commanded by Field Marshall Rommel, as it maneuvered into battle. The general commented to himself, "Rommel... I read your book." As in, he knew that Rommel was the commander, and what his tactical background was, and could therefore anticipate the strategy. (I don't remember who the Allied general was, though, or in which specific battle that happened.) [/QB][/QUOTE]
