    Hi again Joe.  I've been wondering lately about the finale of the 
B5 story.  
    I won't mention any authors by name, but I've many times finished 
reading a book, only to find myself sitting there wondering..."Thats 
it?"  I also recall the same feelings after watching the final 
installment of the Star Wars Trilogy.
   I guess that anyone who invests alot of their time in reading a 
book, or watching a film series, is bound to have a let-down at times.
    Since you are the only one who knows how this story will end, I 
guess I should ask.  Are you at all concerned that, when it's all said 
and done, that some fans will scratch their heads and wonder:  "You 
mean thats it?"

    PS: I read Demon Night, and no...I didn't ask "Is that it?" when I 
was done. :)

No, I don't think so.  The story for "Sleeping in Light," the last B5
episode, is such that it is completely moveable, and self-contained, and
buttons down the arc in what I think is a very moving fashin.  I think
that when it's all said and done, the average reaction will be to sit back
and say, "That was a good story."  Obviously you can't please everyone,
and you can't expect to.  But basically, yeah, I think it's going to end
well.
