I used to run a postal gaming business from home and I had to give it up for health reasons about the time I got into Blake's 7. Fanzines satisfied my workaholic instincts and didn't need a regular seven-day turnaround period. If I was unwell for a week, it didn't matter. It's the flip of choosing to stay at home to bring up the children. I have to do something creative or go nuts. Fandom fills that niche very nicely. I'm doing something that hopefully brings pleasure to other people and keeps me sane and mentally challenged. It's also brought me some of the best friends I've ever had. When I had all the really bad voice trouble, this list and Space City probably prevented me from going nuts. > > Judith said: "I got recognised by the postman this morning." > > Does that mean he's a Blakes 7 fan? Actually, she was watching Star Trek and just carried on. She knows me quite well really - I seem to get a lot of mail . (I say postman because PC speech irritates me after a while) The most serendipitous feedback I've had to date from Lost in Space is finding another Blake's 7 filk fan who lives quite close to me. She actually wrote one of my favourite filks (Star of the Delta Grade). We're arranging to get together and have a filk session one evening. Anyone else live near Poole and want to come along?

Perahps someone can explain why this is so. Because it's amazingly badly-written crap that is a travesty of the series' ethos? **** Others have voiced similar opinions, but that doesn't really convince me. There WERE crap TV episodes, but they are canon, are they not ? Therefore logically, quality has nothing to do with canon. IMHO, if something has the official BBC B7 logo on it, then it's canon. Crap canon possibly (I liked the book until the last 50 pages), but still the real thing. If Blake's Legend got the logo, then that would be canon too.

Hmm... For all my delight in investigating the all-too enigmatic gunslinger, I'd have to answer that I don't know. Certainly she didn't love Dorian! Soolin, I believe, could be very passionate, but even more than Avon she'd be sabotaged by her own cynicism and self-interest. I also think there's be a gulf between who she would find interesting and attractive and who she would be capable of feeling tenderness for. Avon, for example, might attract her, with his brains and his power, but the more emotional/less lusty side of things would escape them - she'd be too wary, and too disgusted by some of the things he's capable of doing. I honestly think she'd have more chance of feeling true love for someone like Vila, someone non-threatening, fun and kind, who wouldn't have any bad associations for her or require her to be defensive. Alternatively, Soolin might manage a torturing passion for someone *completely* inappropriate, like Servalan , and suffer terribly because she couldn't like or trust her beloved... But, in any case, I doubt Soolin loves easily or often - romantically *or* platonically. Even as part of the group, she's a born loner. Every time I try to imagine a scenario for her, it ends in tragedy. XXX Lindley.

Exactly. And, unlike you, I've had extraordinary support, both intellectual and personal, from the staff of the underfunded and debt-ridden Arts Department. The purpose of a liberal arts education is, after all, not to teach you opinions but social responsibility and research and writing skills, while bringing you into contact with the major theories of your chosen areas. Despite some people who still want it to teach you what to think rather than how, this is why I believe liberal arts fits the true spirit of education better than any other area.

And, perhaps I'm being parochial, but while young, many Australian universities are known for being among the most modern and forward thinking in the world (Flinders Uni, also in South Australia, springs to mind.) Howver, many of us choose to go to older, more traditional unis becuase we know a degree from them is more saleable in the job market.

Unfortunately, even in DS9, any criticisms were unsupported by the rest of the canon. You get a few isolated incidents that show all isn't quite hunky dory, but the overall thrust is Father Sam (or his representative in the current captain) Knows Best.

My favourite ending of this kind is in Terry Pratchett's "kids" book "Only You Can Save Mankind." At the end, the hero realises that nothing *concrete* has changed, if you accept that the business with saving the aliens in the computer game was somehow not real. It's only a matter of time before his parents split up, people are still murdering each other in the Gulf and calling it democracy in action, his friend's stil a troubled skinhead. But he, Johnny, has changed, and that's the important thing. (The "Johnny" books are possibly the best kids books ever written, much better than Pterry's other efforts for young uns.) >One of the things that I dearly love about the B7 characters, the thing >that has held my attention so long, is that they are very human.

I think that's why I can't sustain a discussion on the humans and elves (except Legolas and Aragorn) in Tolkien's books the way I can with B7 characters. They are simply mythic archetypes, with little to speculate about or identify with.
