In general I have preferred to shun "TV Guide" since they endorsed
Ronald Reagan for President, but I did lay down the dough for 2 copies 
of the Babylon 5 cover.

I haven't seen any information about sales of this issue, and am just
curious:

Were the sales flat, average, or better than expected?  Will "TV Guide"
be more or less inclined to offer B5 covers in the future?

Also, has there been any fan club activity lately?  It's been so long
since I've received anything, I've started wondering when you're
going to extend memberships for a third year...

Oops, forgot item two:

The new newsletter is at the printers as we speak, and will be delivered
to our offices August 11th.  It will then go out to members asap.

We've been revamping the fan club behind the scenes, and the changes will
now gradually start to be seen.  I'm very happy with the new newsletter,
it's more thorough and better assembled.  The one that follows will have a
brand new format and layout, created by a leading professional graphics
guy, that's just dynamite.

We're putting out more merchandise, and we've taken the B5 web page from
DirectNet, which we were never happy with, and moved it to a different
company, and over the next while we will begin changing features in it to
make it better and more accessible.

In addition to the Agamemnon caps now available, there will be more nifty
stuff coming, all with the FC discount, which will pay for itself in a few
orders.
