It is really great that JMS is having the time of his life with all the good
work he's putting out....doing Cannes and hobnobbing with the stars etc, no
one more than I is happier for him. But I *dearly* hope he'll remember us
mere mortal B5 fans and follow up The Lost Tales with some more straight to
DVD stuff. Especially as Lost Tales sold very well (the condition for making
more), and now the writers guild strike is over, the men-in-suits can make
the decision they promised him/us.

I just worry that he'll push this aside if he's writing movies for stars
like Clint Eastwood to direct....and actors as big as Angelina Jolie to make
them (re 'Changeling'). But I guess no one could blame him if he
did....heck, he's hit the big time!
