I don't usually read this newsgroup...too much traffic to keep up with.  
But there's something I just *had* to post here, in the hopes that you'd 
read it.

Occasionally when I'm reading a book or watching a TV program, a phrase 
or sentence will strike me as being...well...perfect.  Someone who hasn't 
read or seen what happened before won't understand it; but for those who 
have, that phrase or sentence will convey so much more than the words 
themselves.

A few weeks ago, when scanning the Lurker's Guide web page, I saw the 
posted title for episode 404--'Falling Toward Apotheosis.'  I'll admit, I 
didn't know what apotheosis meant at first.  But when I scanned down to 
the 'Notes' section and saw the definition--well, the full force of it 
hit me right between the eyes!  In the context of B5, those three words 
have so many undercurrents and overtones I couldn't possibly begin to 
explain them all--but I sure as heck *felt* them!

Bravo, Mr. Straczynski!  I'm definitely looking forward to that episode.

Thanks.  I labor over titles a long time...I can't actually begin writing
an episode until I have the title worked out; dunno why, it's just one of
those glitches.  And yeah, it's a good and in this case, very apt title.
