   Actually that was a running gag Ian and I have going; he falsely claims   
   there were only 3 seasons of Buffy, and I have to remind him there were   
   5 (hence the remark about 'sixth' as there was no 6th season of BtVS)

   God, I hope so.  Our local comic book shop is sponsoring a contest where   
   you get to run Marvel, in NYC, for a day.  I'm  *so* tempted to enter.   
   First, JMS gets fired; second, all the damage he's done gets retconned   
   out.   
      
   Even if they redid it all the next day, it would be worth it!
