A friend and I were looking for the expression system used by a Finnish
group to produce some molecules we're interested in. Their home page
should bring a little smile. Shadows never attacked my grad school.

I didn't know that the Shadows were on the net.

Except maybe at microsoft.com: "What do you want today?"

Finnish B5 fans have certainly achieved a lot in expressing their
dedication to the show. Unfortunately, many of these would not make
much sense to someone not knowing Finnish culture or language, but
of those that do, I might mention a Unix shell called kosh (it can
only log out; any other command results in a quote from your favourite
Vorlon), the invention of a Vorlon smiley, which looks like this: [ o)
and the discovery of something that was later recognized as a Gaim in
And Now for a Word (was its appearance made intentionally obscure to
give people who watch the whole episode frame by frame because of the
Psi Corps ad something else to find, or was it accidental?).

Although I missed on signing that big "thank you" message, I do share
the sentiment; thank you for creating Babylon 5. I have compiled a
web page that lists each season's opening title sequence:

http://www.helsinki.fi/~peuha/english/babylon5/

To help making that page complete, I would like to know where exactly
are the questions "What do you want?" and "Who are you?" in the
season 5 opening title from; any other missing detail I could find out
by myself (most of them are caused by the fact that I don't have any
episodes prior to TCoS on tape), but those questions are asked so many
times during the series that it's much easier (and more reliable) to
ask someone who knows (or at least has known) the answer(s)...

Of course us Brits are completely sensible, take the treatment of piots
(particularly baby ones) the definition of a new derogatory term
(arsecandles), alt.fan.wonx.in.a.dress, all perfectly sensible.

Oh and don't ask about mice ;)

Sorry, it's not available publicly. At this time, it's only used
as the login shell for any ssh connections to a imap server (the
purpose being to to tunnel the actual imap connection through ssh
for security). Anyone could connect to it, but I'd rather not
tell how without asking permission from the responsible
administrator first.
