    Troi actress Marina Sirtis. I just wish Troi was written to her full

    I would accept that she could turn it on/off as she required .... else
    she would have been driven loco with all the incessant noise.

    HOW she learned to turn it off would be another discussion. Maybe Beta
    zed's are born with the ability turned OFF and have to learn how to turn
    it ON!!


    I think it's more a matter of focus.
