It's nice to be anwered, especially when you are new to the board and a bit shy![]()
I've gotta say I love when people are thorough, and being new you have some great perspective. So, don't be shy!
T'Pol definitely cheers Archer up, much in the same way Spock used to cheer Kirk up. I've always liked that dynamic. Since Spock, the epitome of Vulcan logic to me, can "cheer up" humans, I think it's okay T'Pol does.

Hope to continue seeing you around!
