Oh BTW I hang out on the "lurker's guide to B5"....on there he has a
snopsis
of each episode, with other facts about the episodes. That guy also
cruises
the usenet b5 groups, and places relevant messages from JMS (the guy who
created b5...I can't spell his last name...)
On the episode where the original kosh was killed, JMS was asked if kosh
had
killed any of the shadows. He said to the effect of "no, but if they
were
humans, they would have broken bones, and bruises...."
