 [ Summary: "Again, thank you for your words and thank you for perservering
   in bringing a fantastic story to the screen.  It is riveting and most
   enjoyable."  Also asks if JMS will be at MarCon next year and if it's
   true that TNT will be showing Babylon 5. ]

      Thanks.  To your questions...I haven't yet been invited back to Marcon (I
don't know if they've finalized their list yet), but if that should happen,
work schedule allowing, I would likely be there; and yes, B5 has been sold to
TNT for runs after the show has gone its course, which will be the first time
we'll have had a national timeslot and a big network.

                                                                    jms


 [ Summary: Comments that he thought Boxleitner was a mistake at first,
   and he now realizes that his initial reaction was the real mistake. ]

       S'okay...that generally happens on the show.  When we brought in Vir,
lots of folks moaned about what a mistake it was, "flounder in space," they
said...same with Walter Koenig...there were any number of messages suggesting
we lose Londo, and others...and after a while, when they see what we're doing,
they turn around.  Vir is now many folks' favorite character, and Bruce has hit
it as Sheridan for most everybody now.

       Doesn't bother us anymore.
