Joe,

Quick question about Clark's Law.

In the first couple pages, when Ferdinand lies about who fired
first, the paragraph seems to indicate that if he'd told the
truth, the Earth Minbari war would not have taken place.  Is this
true?

     I haven't read the book since the galleys, and don't have a copy
of the finished book yet, so this will have to wait until it arrives. 
I don't recall the exact specifics of the paragraphs in question.

                                                                  jms

Hi Joe,
   I'm reading "Clarkes Law" right now and have a question.  In
it they say the Lyta Alexander has been deaf since childhood.  I
don't recall hearing or even seeing any indication of this on the
show.  Is this true?

Keep up the Great work!

Mike

     I don't know how that would've gotten past me...I don't recall
seeing that in the draft...either I was tired when reading, or it was
added later.

                                                                  jms

JMS, please oh please, whatever you do - do not turn your
characters into oversized lizards <BG>

Hmmm - let me get this straight - according to ST: Voyager,
humans will evolve into giant mudskippers and lose all their
brains and according to B5 humans will evolve beyond the physical
and enter a metaphysical realm of consciousness.

And they say the Trek future is positive and B5 is more gritty :)

Good job (in general and for not turning Garibaldi into a
lizard).

                                                        - Joel

Joe

Having watched DL yet again while waiting for S3 to begin in the
UK, and studying this developing closeness between Delenn &
Sheridan, in the Garden scene where Sheridan suddenly realises
that Delenn has her hand on his, Delenn appears to be on the verge
of saying something to Sheridan but is interrupted by the comm
link, is this the case or am I reading too much into it .

In any case its a great scene and typical of the series

     It's a moment of transition and awkwardness, more than anything
else, I think.

                                                                  jms
