Subject: Babylon 5
Message-ID: <forum.babylon5.67497 at compuserve.com>

Dear Mr. Straczynski,

I wanted to let you know that I have been enjoying Crusade. I know it
has great potential. I hope it gets renewed for another season.

Is it possible to have Babylon 5 moved back into syndication? I'm sure
many networks would give B5 the respect it deserves. I know the local
station here always supported B5 from the beginning. They also
advertised it on the network many times. The reason I ask this is
because I have seen ER in syndication on a local network while its also
shown on TNT.

Would it be possible to move Crusade into syndication?

Have your plans for making a Babylon 5 Theatrical Movie been moved
because of Crusade? I've read that you are waiting till all the Star
Wars movies are released before considering a B5 movie.

On Thursday I saw some information with a picture of a Starfury for
the B5 Space Combat Game on AOL's main web page. It had a link to the
Gamecenter preview of the game. I'm sure it's going to be a great game!

Thanks, Shawn Ratner

      No, I think they bought it exclusively,

"Have your plans for making a Babylon 5 Theatrical Movie been moved

      I'm in no rush.

Hi, Joe.

I've been playing around with a piece of freeware called Sam Spade, an
anti-spam tool at URL http://www.blighty.com/products/spade.

One of the little features is a tips pop-up that is displayed when you
start the tool. The tips include sage advice ("Don't try to out
stubborn a cat", "Don't eat the yellow snow"), definitions of Internet
terms and acronyms, famous quotations from Dickens, Heinlein, etc.,
plus unattributed quotes.

One of the quotations regarding a "kind word and two-by-four" rang a
bell but I thought that it was an Al Capone quote. Then I hit a quote
attributed to Londo about Intelligence and politics; then Sheridan's
Rule #29. I counted at least six B5 quotes that I recognized, there may
be more.

So, how does it feel to be warping the minds of future generations?
