1)      Will the fan club mailings be first class or bulk rate ?  I see no
option       
        for upgrading the foreign subscriptions to Air Mail.  I'm trying to
figure
        out which address to use for my mailings.

2)      Do you still use your GENIE account, or do you just hang out on AOL
and CSERV ?


Like ripples in a pond from the tossed pebble, you can expect a new wave of
responses
once the new shows make it overseas.  I've got a tape trapped somewhere in
hyperspace, and
have surrendered to reading the spoiler notes, until such time as the tapes
arrive.

Judging by what I have read, the newest shows are real heart stoppers.  As
that comment
is based upon other people's impressions, I can hardly wait to judge for myself.

3)      You have stated the Internet feedback is a living document, about
the making of B5.  However
after the fifth year, would you consider writting a "Memories" type book, of
some of the 
details that have not come up in on-line discussions?   In reading another
"Memories" book,
that actors description of the startup stuggle seemed to foreshadow (hmm..)
your own
experiences in dealing with Studios and broadcasters.

Please keep up the good work.  And thanks for holding out, to tell Your
story, Your way.

The foreign mailings were initially going to be ground; we're
investigating whether or not we can afford, without raising the price, to
do airmail instead.

We're taking other steps to see if we can make things easier for the UK
fans.

As for where I am, I'm still kinda all over the place, here, CIS, GEnie,
AOL primarily.
