No, unfortunately Marcus ain't in this one. But he does have a very
large part in the next one.

Joe,
I've already done that to several people... The lady who called up to check
the entries in the UConn Alumni directory, for instance, store clerks, anyone
who understands why my green and purple suede shoes are called "Drazi feet,"
etc., etc.
Course, I'm also pushing Space Cases and Hypernauts... <happy smile>

Great...and thanks...even if you *are* pushing Space Cases. Aren't
there laws about that?

[ Summary: Asks JMS about a scene he saw on Sci-Fi Buzz in which Marcus
touches Lennier and Lennier reacts negatively about it. Wants to know
in which episode this scene will appear. ]

The scene was from "Ceremonies of Light and Dark."

[ Summary: Likes how subtle JMS depicted the Nightwatch in ItSoZ as
compared to their portrayal in Point of No Return. Thinks that once
B5 moves to daily re-runs, more of these subtle changes will be
noticed. ]

that it's a whole new experience.

Was it anything else, or are we done with it?

Fm: ROWAN KAISER
>>His encounter suit translates vorlon into english; he can converse just fine
with other vorlons without it.<<
I'm currently on a debate on Vorlonspeak, so why not go to the source? Do
Corlon's speak in music, and the translator turns it into English?

Sb: #Sci Fi Buzz Interview
Fm: JAMES R. KAPESIS
I just saw the Claudia Christian interview on Sci Fi Buzz. Could you tell me
what episode it was that they showed scenes from? They showed a bunch of Narn,
Minbari, along with Sheridan and Ivanova together in the scene.
I notice that Sheridan has longer hair now, is that part of the storyline or
did Boxleitner do it on his own?
BTW, the new uniforms looked great.

Not having seen the episode yet, I can't tell where the scene came from.
And the styles do get a bit looser with time....

Did the Vorlons support Valen just as they supported G'Quon?
