Ultimately, it was symbolic. If someone can open locks with her mind... I would presume she can also untie a knot... or break materials where a knot or lock does *not* exist. It was surprisingly polite of Lyta to maintain that illusion of security for others. Perhaps she regretted her...

If by NO you mean nitrogen-oxygen... I would agree. It would be possible just like methane. However, for someone on the technical level of Vorlons... I would presume atmosphere to be... at most a matter of comfort (and certainly not survival). If something does not matter too much, faking it...

Now that you mention, my memory does *not* contain trustable details to explain this opinion. To verify, I must consult my recordings. :p [i]Edit: Having now consulted recordings, I have also pinpointed the source of said impression. Movement. Choreography. Something in that department...

Why of all places... should he choose a methane bath? :P Higher or lower form... since I presume Kosh was no novice in telepathy... they could have been plausibly chatting half the time. :D

Besides above mentioned concerns... I have a problem with the person rotating. Why rotate the person, when you can rotate the view? Moreover, why float the person in AG... where a failiure in AG would smash him/her into the closest wall/floor/ceiling? Far better for the person to sit (and have...

Re: Delenn\'s Telepathic Abilities??? Well, to be honest... I would have considered that Drakh guy/gal/entity somewhat suspect too. While its comments about a destroyed homeworld could have suggested the race was an unlucky victim of the Shadow war (which, in some sense, it was)... its notably...

Re: Delenn\'s Telepathic Abilities??? I haven't heard of Minbari making a fuss about telepaths living among non-telepaths (or about them marrying). Therefore, with high probability, telepath genes are far more diluted (and fairly commonplace) among the Minbari. Humans may have an unnaturally...

Re: It\'s (semi)Official: Babylon 5 FEATURE FILM! This is all... remarkably nice to hear! :D

White Stars appear... a quite marginal comparison. They have inherent difference in technology. I would guess they were designed with little compromise. They had no advantage to receive from fighters. Shadow vessels would simply not recognize conventional fighters. White Stars too... were...

There is one more aspect. If the quality of a lie is brought down... making the lie recognizable... does its effect not change towards the opposite? Whoever commissioned a shoddy job of forgery on Delenn's and Sheridan's interview... and perhaps Randall himself... was either incompetent... or...

Re: Cutting Byron from season 5 First, I must correct one mistake. Now that you mentioned the background... I realize that my counter-argument about "Patterns of the Soul" was truly invalid. I have never watched "Patterns of the Soul" -- was confusing it with another episode. That said... if...

Re: Cutting Byron from season 5 A plan which could not succeed. When fighting a centralized institution of superior power, it makes no sense to centralize your supporters -- make them one big target before they can fight. Far better to hide, undermine and bide your time. By allowing his...

I suspect even Delenn would have pointed out... that demand for a new homeworld was low among Minbari telepaths. Donating a habitable planet, presumably with a jump gate and a pair of cruisers to guard against Psi-Corps takeover... to a hundred-something Humans, people representing only...

Re: Cutting Byron from season 5 1) Byron may have reaslized that Psi-Corps was wrong. That makes him no genius. Most reasonable people realized that. Even most telepaths, I suspect. 2) Byron may have realized that killing innocent people was wrong. Quite an accurate realization, after the...

Are you not disregarding global warming -- especially what occurred during the middle of the 21st century? ;)

I had the impression that while Sheridan was an Earther alright... he was not from California. In fact, I suspect having heard his parents mentioned in close proximity to something like Minnesota... ...although it might have indicated current location as opposed to origin. And his father's...

Not reading up on plants... would be a horrible embarrasment for a technomage! :eek: Or... it could have been some genetically engineered orange-of-the-future, different from contemporary ones.

Re: Consequences for Using Telepaths or Off Scott Unfortunately, it doesn't appear clear whether a telepath did actually incapacitate the machine... or merely disconnect its link to the brain. In the latter case, the machine would still be operational in other regards than controlling its host...

Re: Consequences for Using Telepaths or Off Scott Define the attributes which define a human. I personally find them difficult to define. Genes? Present. Mind? Present. Fluently operational? No. Capable of becoming operational? Yes. Memories? At least memories of their modification, and the...

Re: Consequences for Using Telepaths or Off Scott There is a difference between using power obtained via just means (power given by another)... and using power obtained via unjust means (power taken from another). Taking something unjustly from one... makes it suspectable that the action may...
