Bravo on this one! I'll admit that I was getting just a bit
relaxed and complacent in following this episode, then it hit me
"up side of the head" with the G'Kar sequence! Nearly scared the
fur off the cat with my reaction! And even the Bester story had a
wonderful twist.
Bravo to the entire ensemble on this one!

Just out of curiosity, do you contract with some of the folks
that do your recurring characters to do so many eps a year. I was
wondering because you used John Vickery both for Neroon (one of my
favorite Minbari xenophobes) and Wells with Nightwatch (where he
was also quite good).
I was wondering if you did this because he is a fine actor and
you can get away with it because of the makup, or you had
contracted something with him, or both.

No, we can't contract with occasional actors in this fashion,
so we have to book them ahead of time, as soon as a script lands in the
production office. If they're not available, sometimes we have to do
without and make the character someone else, or juggle episodes so we
can shoot when they are available.

How old do humans get (I'm looking for two things, max age ever
recorded and average age).

Probably about 120 would be the oldest a human would get; there
hasn't been that much change in that end of it. The median age,
though, is different, so that right now, the average lifespan is 68
years, I think. By 2260 you can add another 20 years to that.

Don't you know better than to try and say something good about a
Trek show in the B5 area? I'm surprised JMS didn't come flying in
here accusing you of having a sinister agenda and trying to do him
personal harm.

"Don't you know better than to try and say something good about a

harm."
An interesting comment from you, given that you're addressing
this to Wayne Hall, your brother, so obviously he came in here to leave
the message so you could then respond in this fashion, and thus attack
me.
Also intresting in light of your comments on AOL, in which you
were the single loudest voice screaming bloody murder whenever B5 was
mentioned in the ST areas, and your repeated request, verging on
demand, that people be prohibited from mentioning B5 at ST conventions,
bitching about the mention of B5 at ST panels, and generally carrying
on cranky whenever the show got any mention at all in a ST folder.
Whereas, on the other hand, when the B5 page was opened on AOL, I
made it a *point* to make sure that there was a subsidiary section set
aside for the discussion of other TV series, including the variations
of ST, to create a more open environment.
The problem, as usual with you, Randy, is entirely yours. You
continue to project onto others your own problems. You're truly a
pathetic individual.
