NOTES AND ANSWERS
Q: Where do you get your information?
A: A lot of official sources: the episodes themselves, comics, novels,
magazines, the RPG, B5 Wars, micromachines, and JMS on Usenet, AOL, Genie, & Compu$erv.
Anything I can get my hands on.
Q: How come there aren't profilesfor
all the characters in the show?
A: I start with my favorite characters and go down the list (a slow
process). Priority is given to all other sections. For the record: I really
do like G'Kar and Londo - two of the show's finest actors. To tell the
truth, I opened this section just for n'grath...
Q: Who is JMS?
A: J. Michael Straczynski. Creater, writer and executive producer
of the television show, "Babylon 5".
Q: Has JMS seen your site, and what does he think?
A: Someone asked him that question on Compu$erve a long time ago.
Here is JMS' reply: "Dunno, I haven't seen it...will investigate." And
that's pretty much the end of it.
Q: Can I download this in a text file?
A: No. Sorry, for one I can't spare the time to make a new file
every time I add to the site. Further, the megabytes I have available are
inadequate.
Q: Is this available in book format?
A:Well you can't say I didn't try, but a poor choice of literary
agents did a book version of the VEX in.
Q: Why aren't there any episode synopses?
A: A great number of sites have that area covered (foremost being
the Lurker's
Guide and the Official
Babylon 5 Site) more than adequately.
Q: Has the VEX won any awards?
A: The VEX has won four awards! Awards are as follows: Cool Site
of the Hour (2am, Sept. 20, 1996), Geek Site of the Day (Sept. 20, 1996),
a 4-star rating from Magellan, and the Shakaar Top 5 Site for December!
In addition to Net Awards, Voltayre's Encyclopedia Xenobiologica has been
mentioned in Sci-Fi Flix (September 1996), Sci
Fi Entertainment (February 1997), TELE (Mar
15-21, 1997). The VEX was also reviewed by Science
Fiction Weekly (April 6, 1997) and named their Sci-Fi Site of the Week!
The July 5-11 issue of TV
Guide lists the VEX among three others in an article by Jose A. Martinez.
On October 21, 1997, the VEX was selected as one of the Best of B5 related
sites by Best of Babylonia.The
VEX is featured as a "Click Pick" in the Babylon 5 section of Your Personal
Net Sci-Fi (Michael Wolff, ed., Dell Publishing, 1997). The VEX
may be featured in a future broadcast of "Wild,
Wild Web," an upcoming issue of StarBurst, and Sci Fi Universe.
