Lines: 14 The seeming contradiction about the Tardis being isomorphic and others operating the beast can be explained if we hark back to a conversation between the Doctor and Sarah. Sarah was wondering how she could understand what the various odd creatures they ran into were saying. The Doctor replied that this was a Timelord gift that he was allowing her to use (sharing with her, was the phrasing, I believe). Allowing various select people to operate the Tardis would seem to be another application of this largesse. Dieter Muller (djm@nmtvax) I am not a man, I am a free number!
