O.K. Joe
Three things:
1)I've noticed that, according to the Lurker's Guide, you have written 
the first eight episodes of season four.  Are you planning to write the 
entire season?  I hope so.  Season three kicked ass.  I can only assume 
that the Hugo must have revitalized your writing spirit.
2)How does it feel to be in a class of sci-fi writers that produced such 
classics as Star Wars, Alien, 2001, and of course old Harlan's classic 
Trek episode?
3)Did you get a chance to read the WWWF Grudge Match a few weeks ago? If 
you didn't, the address is www.cheme.cornell.edu/~slevine   Check out the 
history icon and scroll down to the bottom until you reach the Babylon 5 
vs. Deep Space Nine.  I don't want to entice any hostilities.  The page 
is designed to be funny, and I believe you'll like the results.  Maybe 
you should pass them along to Warner Brothers the next time they decide 
to start playing around with the show(like dragging out the last few 
season three episodes)

It was a big help, no mistake.  
 
"2)How does it feel to be in a class of sci-fi writers that produced such

Trek episode?"

Well, that kind of approbation is granted by time and time alone, not by
the person doing the work...if the show survives and thrives twenty years
from now, as is my hope, ask me again then.  Now, it would be presumptive
of me to do so.

"3)Did you get a chance to read the WWWF Grudge Match a few weeks ago?"

No....
