So rather than form your own opinion, you are going to meekly take the
word of people I've had arguments with in the past.
Silly me for thinking you were capable of objectivity.
I am undershocked.

Which says nothing about sending anything to JMS, and essentially says
what I have been saying - go look for yourself.

Which says nothing about anything - typical of Kennedy.

you to pick.

Someone who ventures an opinion in the same sentence as she admits she
doesn't know what she's talking about. Give he a half hour and she'll
disappear up her own arse. I hope.

"irritate" does not equate to "harass". And Denebeim's got as much of
a God complex as Straczynski, so he's hardly a reliable measure.
Sorry, but if that lot is the best you can come up with then you're
even more a lost cause than I though you were, which is saying

They're not known as "the usual suspects" for nothing.
