There might be gaps here... ...because how can you tell... how long the Alliance actually lasted? The story does indicate that something, presumably the Rangers... lasted until far future. But the Alliance political structure... might not have lasted so long. The probability of it lasting a...

Sheridan *can* certainly be arrogant (anyone who absolutely cannot faces severe difficulties in life)... but in this situation... I cannot backtrace actions to anything of excessive (or even notable) arrogance. What I do notice: -- Delenn was not entirely honest (what a surprise, given that...

I would think... that First Ones were quite capable of removing an inconvenient star. However, even for them... directly destroying a tiny planet (tiny in relative sense) could prove notably quicker/easier than destroying a *massive* star. Although, admittedly... it would probably depend on...

Apparently they did. And decided the best way to acquire new habitable systems... was taking by force. During which they wasted the resources to peacefully secure a new planet or two (or provided technical expertise, create stations/ships/orbitals to manage without).

Thanks for posting! :D They are all cute, and I certainly miss opportunity to meet people who can tell such wonderful stories.

I would think the younger races were *not* terribly flooded with Vorlon propaganda. Sure, it seems the Vorlons, officially preferring order... invested slightly more resources in their propaganda team... perhaps even enough to conduct a few instances of species-wide genetic conditioning...

I tend to think... that the difference isn't so great. What is light, after all... but a peculiar form of matter, particles without standing mass? A form (at least for our technology) more suited for tranmission than storage. For beings whose technology permits seemingly crazy stuff (for...

How this story ended... was quite sad. Since the story was interesting, believable and generally immersive, I had grown to appreciate its characters, and could identify with them. (Therefore, while I suspect I didn't cry when I watched it... I did cry later, when I thought about it.)

Re: Mira To Be On \'LOST\' Thanks for telling. :) I will definitely keep that in mind... and should a recording or broadcast of that show happen to reach where I live... I will definitely watch.

Nah. For most practical purposes, soul could *be* personality. (Only when one ventures into religious discussion, does a possibility of perceiving the concepts with much difference arise.) Still, I must make one reservation. One must probably admit... that personality is often (and perhaps...

Re: Are We the Galaxy’s Youngest Residents? I hold the opinion... of them having been approximately equally intelligent. Just a massive bit less informed than we can become. There might be a *slight* difference (our environment might reward abilities of mind more than theirs)... but...

Re: Are We the Galaxy’s Youngest Residents? Neither do I know for sure. I only know... that in approximate terms of generations, humans of 8000 years ago... relate to us like fruit flies of 10 years ago relate to current fruit flies. Because the biological form of a species doesn't easily...

Yes indeed... you already can fly a Starfury... :) (although the activity demands a compatible computer and does require some skill).

Re: Are We the Galaxy’s Youngest Residents? I personally suspect the opposite -- namely that Earth has not been discovered (or has been discovered and ignored). If we look back... into the history of Earth biosphere, or alternatively into human history... it suggests to me that nobody has...

Re: Are We the Galaxy\'s Youngest Residents? Blow bubbles through their gills? Revolve in air, slowly repeating "bala bala balala lala"? Nod in understanding fashion and smile? Who knows. But I believe the impression below the expression... will be some form of amusement.

Most unfortunate.

I considered it! But somehow it just... didn't sound as credible. :D

Of biological alien characters... I cannot see *any* alternative to considering Delenn the best. (Of course, in evaluating this matter, I should mention my subjectivity rating is outside reasonable limits. This is because I consider her cute.) However... if artificial intellect has a category...

Does this happen with all files... or only one? Especially if it happens with all files (or multiple applications)... it might be a printer driver bug.

Big studios, especially those from Hollywood (especially members of DVDCCA)... generally region-code their disks. Smaller ones... may be less interested in artificially limiting their market (or annoying customers by forcing them to employ circumvention technologies). Consequently, since...
