Hello JMS,

	I'm wondering if any of the cast members have previously
written, produced or directed any productions (either stage, TV or film)
previous to (or as a consequence of) B5 or intending to direct any
episodes of B5?  Many thanks for you time, and I look forward to seeing
season 3 come April 14.

Best regards,

	Martyn (who is still waiting for a *proper* rastb5m feed)

Insofar as I know, only Stephen Furst has any directorial background (and
he's quite good at what he does).  So far, none of the cast has made any
real noise about directing.  Frankly, I'd like to make sure it doesn't
come up, because if one cast member directs, then logically and
reasonably, you find yourself in a situation where you can't deny anybody
else.  Then they're *all* directing, and the acting slips.  Most of the
cast don't seem terribly interested in the notion anyway, so with luck
it'll be a moot point.
