JMS has expressed reluctance to answer questions from non-Compuserve
subscribers in the CIS B5 forum. Therefore I will no longer post
questions in the CIS B5 forum on behalf of non-CIS susbcribers. Sorry.

posts will be included in this digest. Otherwise they will not. Please
see the copyright notices below.
I am not involved with administration of any mailing lists this digest

Mark Holtz at 1:203/1701 (Mark Holtz, Fidonet B5 echo <mholtz at calweb.com>)
(Re mailing lists: I have finally gotten all of the mailing list
submissions to work. This Saturday I will probably generate a digest
covering things from the first of March to make sure everyone's gotten
everything.)

Joe,
Thanks for the swift reply.
Are you able to say if we are ever likely to get B5 commercially
available in widescreen ? I'd appreciate your opinion / best
guess.
Please keep up the excellent work.

FRP games require a good bit of detail information about the
races and "universe", it would seem me you would have to tell us
much more about the alien races than you have been willing to so
far (and I have no problem with that as I can understand how the
gradual revelation of each race adds a great deal to the overall
story arc).
Could this mean that by the time the games comes out you will
have finished showing us the aliens and are moveing along with
other things?

I think I can work out how much info to put in and still leave
me with other areas to bring out new stuff, and there'll likely be
supplements and subsequent reference works later that incorporate new
stuff anyway.

Message-ID: <forum.sfmediaone.470437 at compuserve.com>
I just noticed this, after a long time. Jeffrey Sinclair, John
Sheridan, and Joe Straczynski all have the same initials - JS! Is
this intentional?
Will we later find out that both Sinclair and Sheridan have
middle names beginning with an "M"?

I have heard that you said that the warrior caste was not
"touched by shadows"? Is this true?

As established in the show, they use gravitational and magnetic

B5 is probably a bit too big, but it's a moot point, as the
station can't move under power anyway.
