I agree with Jamie. JMS, this is like writing all the 3rd season
episodes yourself. Maybe you don't realize that your time and restedness
are valuable, but we do.

It's like the old rhyme: Delegate! Delegate! Free more time to mast...
uh, never mind how that cheer ends. It's like a scene I saw on TV the
other day, where the captain of some station can't sleep and won't stop
working and the alien ambassador, a Minbari, makes him stop. Probably
the writer of that scene could tell you a thing or two about overwork.
:)

PS:     Who'll give me odds that someone will post a "superior" message
"informing" me who wrote that scene, as if I didn't know?
