I do not doubt he is an amazing assistant to you and you obviously work well together, however he is not Command Staff. I was >questioned after the meeting the other day about why he was in a Senior Brass-Only meeting when I did not he would be attending so I could make Admiral >Lasiter aware...honestly I don't like those kind of questions. From now on Senior Staff means just that. Do you have any questions?"

>"Yes I do Sir. Would you have liked those space vermin loose in the meeting? My waldoes cannot lift heavy items nor can my cilia. And an attemp to move the >cage with either would be very dangerous. Mr Knucklebiter is not only my second, he is my hands at sometimes, Sir. I find it amusing on many levels that the >Federation cries out "Join us in Equality and Brotherhood", yet insist on rules regulations and equipment that is singularly suited for bipedal humanoids."
