>right order?

We definitely plan to work with TNT to make sure the air order is
correct.

>Have you ever noticed how much everyone on B5 uses the word "hell"?

The hell you say....

>Was O'Hare sick at I-Con?

Yeah, Michael was down with a very serious 24-48 hour intestinal flu bug
that pretty much put him away, but he pushed past it to come to the con.

>Shameless plug from your editor: Michael O'Hare and Stephen Furst have

>http://www.dragoncon.org for convention information.

>JMS quotes and answers:

"What are the chances of major spoilers being leaked from "Sleeping in
Light" over the next year?!?!?!?"

I'm sure some of that's bound to happen...but the reality of it is that
if you add up all the people who are online and might get this
information, you'd actually end up with only about 4% of the viewing
audience...so it'll still have its desired impact.

>George talks about potential DVD releases:

Clay, Jay, Claudia, and other DVD interested folks:

The discussions we have had concerning DVD with Warners have all been
based on 2 episodes per disk, with supplimental material, and full use
of DVD's capability.

4 episodes per disc hits the compression scheme pretty hard, and I don't
like the way it looks, so we will stick with two per, IF this were to
become a product.

(Big IF by the way, for reasons we have already discussed in this forum)

And, btw, ehat do you mean where are you, George? I've been here
working my behind off getting these episodes out! :-)

>George answers a question about the format of the upcoming B5 CD ROM:

The CD will be multiple platform, as Joe uses several Intels, John
several Macs, and I use a PowerMac, 32 NT's and 24 Alphas. We gotta be
able to run the darn thing ourselves!
