^ I would like to interject here and say that the first thing Shepard says when he magically puts on full body armor in under a second(gameplay, I know) at the beginning of ME2 is, "This pistol doesn't have a thermal clip!". To which Miranda responds its a med-bay and will have to find some elsewhere. So I guess Shepard did know about thermal clips before his untimely demise.
