We have this comment in the article now: "Betazoids, for example, have active telepathic abilities with members of their species as mentioned above, but only passive telepathic abilities with members of other species." But on further thought, it occurs to me that there were times when, for example, Lawaxanna Troi talked telepathically with both Deanna and Picard, neither of which are telepathic. For that to occur, Betazoid telepathy must be active across other species. Thoughts? --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml.

* How is active/passive defined? I thought active would mean Betazoids are generally communicating telepathicly with each other all the time, but passive means they have to conciously make an effort to use it on other species? [[User:Hutch|Hutch]] 18:35, 2 January 2009 (EST) | |||
