"It might worrrk," said Tr'Lawsh, "but they would know it was
falssse. Holodecksss prrrovide beingsss you can touch, hearrr, and sssee,
but everrry one of them would know it wasss falssse becaussse the sssmellss
would be absssent orrr wrrong. They might feel they werrre being
decieved. We can ussse the holodeck forrr humansss - we could prrrogrram
in ssimple sssmellss, and prrrobably fool them. But they would sssee a
Caitian and know the sssmell wasss wrrrong, orr the subtle body language
that isss sso much of ourrr communication. Unlesss yourrr holodecksss
arrre morrre advanced than I know, they might asssume thisss wasss jussst a
way to trrrick them."
"Could we get a bunch of Caitians in a room and pump in the air? The scents
would also pass though, right?"
