Cochrane chuckled. “Yep, that’s the one. Among others. Let me know if you want a signed copy.” he added with a grin.

I’ve watched entire faculty departments look like they were just hit with phasers on stun when she was finished talking.” and he chuckled again. After a moment he said “Not many people can weather her Mediations. I’m impressed, Lieutenant.”
