I ask, since I recently discovered that the body of the robot from Volcano is owned by one fan I know and the hands by another. The two will probably be arranging a trade. Likewise I now know who owns the jacket that was worn with the Blake shirt that I own. I don't think I could afford to buy the jacket even if the fan wanted to sell, but if we ever want to get together for an exhibition or anything of the kind, we know where to find one another. I think a data base might not ideally be kept on line as people who own a valuable costume might not want their address advertised (though listing an e-mail address might be possible depending on people's preference), but if people like the idea, then I could at least put fans/convention organsiers/researchers in touch with one another. What do people think? I know several people on the list own costumes, though most of us probably only have one item. Would you like to be able to find people who have related items of costume? It might just be for social reasons - maybe reuite the crew of the Space Princess - or to allow you sell on items to other enthusiasts if you lose your interest in Blake's 7.

Avon is a good judge of character, and Vila doesn't realize they're being set up before he does. They do not have Cally stare at the strange ship and realize there's something alien on it only to then shuttle her out of the storyline. Avon can actually come up with a survival strategy that doesn't involve shooting old friends (some may see this as a drawback). The alien had more believable motives than the aliens--or at least a better plan. If the crew was foolish enough to teleport something dangerous on board (whether plague or revive-a-corpse kit), they had to deal with the consequences. No giant shoulder pads (some may see this as a drawback). Ellynne ___________________________________________________________________ Get the Internet just the way you want it.

Yes! I think it is an excellent idea! Not only for the reasons listed below, but for confirming authenticity. In my case I own a costume I know is original, but I do not have any "official" looking certificate of authenticity. It would be difficult to sell to people outside of the few I know from lists for this reason. If there was a database online it would be simple to verify it's authenticity. This would also come in handy if (for example) an item showed up on e-bay and one wanted to confirm it's authenticity. If any help is needed with this, I would be more than willing to throw in a hand. Reuben reuben@reuben.net http://www.reuben.net/blake/ P.S. The costume I own is one of the guard's uniforms from Gold. Whoever the costume it was made for had to be pretty short.

Yes, Judith, this one's for the web page if you want it. The Reluctant Op, by Barbara Paul The Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine, Sep/Oct 99 A mystery short story (~40 pages) featuring a lead character by the name of Callie Darrow, once a thief, now wanting to turn straight - if only she hadn't been forced to join a detective agency and sent back as an undercover operative into the very environment she needs to escape from. There's another fannish joke by way of the name of a tugboat (and I'm very glad I'd finished my mug of tea before I got to that page), but no avatars. The story is still of interest to any B7 fan who enjoys mysteries, as it has the same dark edge and moral shades of grey. I love the relationship Callie has with the boss who blackmailed her into joining his organisation. I enjoyed the story, and would like to see more. Another point of interest - this story is set in a shared world, Port Wolfe, created by a group of mystery writers who wanted to put together a shared world anthology of the type familiar in sf. The editors the project was submitted to liked the project, but the sales departments didn't, so in the end the stories were submitted to various places as standalones. Pity, as the depth of background detail to be seen in this story suggests they put a lot of work into creating a convincing setting. I'd buy an anthology on the strength of this story.

"I can beat any computer chess game without raising a sweat, therefore you muct believe me" is not a convincing argument). After hearing so much about the eyelashes before I saw this, I was very disappointed to see they were actually within human norms. I read the script before seeing this. It's scary how much less convincing the Clone Master was in person than she was on paper. Big points off for the music. This isn't a superweapon. It's a _ray gun_. For it to be of any use, you'd have to sneak it in and shoot all the leaders of the Federation (or whatever evil planet) in the first place. Probably some interesting applications, but a tad more limited than they made out. "The weapon guards itself" for exactly as long as it takes Servalan to think of sending in a goon squad to get it without attending to the matter personally. Other than that, yes, it was much more B7ish. And, yes, the guest star was cute, but couldn't they have gotten someone who looked like Blake , , , ?
