I was just thinking over Babylon 5 the other day, and there's
something I've always wanted to ask you--

How far into the hammering out of the story did you come up with the
concept to have Babylon 5 break away from Earth?
Not to make the rest of the show seem inferior by comparison, but it
occurs to me that the seccession was a stroke of genius. Everyone was
expecting Clark to get caught, arrested, and brought down--and then
Earth would join in the fight for the Shadows. But, as all know, what
happened ending up being quite the opposite.
I think that's probably the reason why there are so many people out
there that say "I though Babylon 5 was okay for the first three
seasons, but I didn't really start to LOVE it until Severed Dreams."

That came very early on; it seemed essential to me.
