For those who may have missed it, Robin Sachs "passed away suddenly" on

So sad. Besides B5, he was fantastic as Ethan Rayne on "Buffy the Vampire
Slayer."

(And, for the conspiracy nuts out there, fyi: Blair apparently posted this on
Saturday, and it only appeared in the moderation queue today, Tuesday. So
things do get hung up sometimes!)

Oh that's just part of the conspiracy - to make it appear that there's no
conspiracy.

Sounds like someone read some Robert Anton Wilson recently, or it stuck in
the mind.

On another completely unrelated note, are there any old school gamers around
here?

Like, first Edition AD&D. I'm publishing a magazine about it now -- we just
published our fourth quarterly issue last month.

Not sure the AD&D I played was first edition.

I played AD&D around 1998 but it was probably a later edition.

Played Shadowrun II and the old Star Wars Roleplaying Game in the early-mid 1990s.

Yeah, that would be second edition. Different, but not too different. If

I noticed on startrek.com that Victor Lundin died on the 29th June. Victor played the sinister Psi Corps Official in the season 4 episode Epiphanies. Victor had the singular 'honour' of being the first on screen Klingon in TOS.

In the Phoenix Comic Con vids there was a comment made about disputed rights
regarding the show, but no one said anything about that. IIRC, this was
during Joe's Friday talk and Q&A. SinceI've not heard of this, or at least
don't remember hearing of it, what's going on with that?

Hi All!
Since my posting (new subject) from saturday didn't show up
("starfury-effect"? Hey Amy!), I append this on an existing
and appropriate thread.
Even the news aren't quite new (as I later regognized,
Jan did a post at jmsnews on 08-02), I think this should be
mentioned on rastb5m too.


Subject: "RIP Michael Ansara ..."

... who played the technomage Elric.
