Yes, I saw the announcements and Joe Straczynski saying his piece on Twitter today.

I wish him good luck.

I only saw Mrs. Furlan in person once, at San Diego, just as Babylon 5 was getting going. And that, from across a standing-room only hall. Her work on-screen was nonetheless stellar, in the best sense, in the role of Delenn.

I never got to see Mr. Aaron, but I read the Peanuts strip with Snoopy standing in for Mr. Aaron, taking his own share of hate mail as a fictional beagle on his own quest to break Babe Ruth's record, and later learned the fuller story. Mr. Schulz was clearly a fan of Mr. Aaron, from what I saw in print.

Two people worthy of respect. Now both gone.

My right hip and lower back ache, probably caused by bad lifting postures during the culling process in the basement. Which is stiil underway.

I had a sleep machine-related appointment this morning. The machine is now reprogramed from APAP to CPAP mode. Apparently, from what the people supplying and monitoring the machine can tell, it is having a positive impact on the sleep apnea situation. Severely positive.

I did not win the LottoMax jackpot. (Big surprise, right?) So the culling continues.

Does anyone want two editions of J. Michael Straczynski's Book of Scriptwriting? They were done a decade or so apart, and the second includes a Babylon 5 script in one of the appendices. Message me if you want them!

This was an unlocked article at the Scientific American website, excerpted from the April 2020 issue. As a fan of astronomy and of the space opera branch of science fiction and fantasy, there was no way I wasn't going to distract myself from my troubles for at least a few minutes to look this one over.

I keep saying: the Star Trek people are going to need to update their maps too. This is one more part of why.

The most recent one had been crashing immediately upon start-up on my other MacBook (Not Pro), so this might be a serious improvement.

Good morning, and good luck.

A Babylon 5 question: I'm trying to remember the episode whence came a particular exchange about motives for lying between Cdr. Sinclair and Lt. Cdr. Garibaldi.
