JMS,

I noticed a couple of things in Walkabout that reminded me of The Empire
Strikes Back such as 
   - the 'new' Kosh doing the Vader-strangle thing on Lyta
   - the hologram of the Minbari captain was a lot like the holograms of
the Imperial captains in the asteroid sequence.

Was this in any way intentional or have I just been watching Empire
*way* too much lately?

Enjoyed the episode but I don't much like the idea of having to wait two
weeks for the next one (*thanks* Channel Four...).

Steve.

Don't say none :-)

Properly marked spoilers allow the sensitive to avoid them, and us
insensitive types to enjoy them :-)
