Ranger Jan has just gotten a wonderful assignment and she would like
us to help her out. Here is her note to all of us:

I've been asked by a publication to interview Kathryn Drennan about
her B5 first season episode "By Any Means Necessary". The goal of the
interview is to ask the questions fans want to know about this episode
and her experience writing for Babylon 5.

Of the non-JMS scripts this is a particular fan favorite, so please
email me questions you would like to have her answer. Once the article
is done I will be able to announce when and where you can read it.
Send as many questions as you like to JanMSchroeder@...

Here is a synopsis of the episode:

Following a fatal accident in a docking bay the workers stage an
illegal strike. Earth Central sends in a negotiator who inflames the
situation further and invokes the "Rush Act" whereby striking workers
can be arrested and replaced. Meanwhile, due to the accident in the
docking bay, a plant necessary for a Narn religious ceremony was
destroyed and Londo Mollari possesses the only one of its kind on the
station. It's up to Commander Sinclair to find a solution to all of
these issues.

FYI:
New Discussion Topic:
With the news of a new LONE RANGER project in the works, I began
thinking about all the old "heroes" I grew up with - Roy Rogers, The
Lone Ranger, Rocky Jones Space Ranger, Captain Gallant, etc. Would
these shows survive in today's environment? Would the good moral-based
stories survive today's fiercely competitive ratings?

Send in your thoughts and comments to sgbruckner@.... I will post
them on the Discussion Page for everyone to share and enjoy. It is
interesting to hear other views on the topic so be sure to send them
along. We enjoy hearing from you.

Talk to you soon,
Sandy
