        I agree.  I've always thought of their ability to fly as sort of
local-and-the-burbs.  This makes sense too if you think of the vampire as
a lifeform, like a parasite cohabiting the body.  How far does the vamp
need to fly to hunt?   Twenty or maybe fifty miles ought to do it; most
often it will be less.

        This was enough of a distance, before the information age, to
allow them to change towns pretty frequently and escape any nasty rumors
that might be brewing about their presence (as we saw Urs recount to
Vachon in "Hearts of Darkness" and as I think we have seen in other eps as
well).  So my vote, whatever the nature of their flight ability, is for
limited distances.  Maybe a hundred miles in desperate need?  But
certainly nothing like across a continent or an ocean.

Mr. Bennett,
Do not worry, sir.  We, forgive me for feeling free to speak for most
folks on the list, are on your side.  Many of us, particularly those of
us who teach for a living, recognized the problem as it occurred.  While
teaching is not as glamourous as acting, it does attract its share on the
deluded.
On another note, have you considered doing an audiobook?  Mr. Wyn Davies'
reading of Hauntings is grand.  Your interpretation of Carroll's work was
wonderful.
Thank you for the good  work,

I don't like Seinfeld but was eating and it came on after Home Improvement.
 I saw John Kapelos.  He had much longer hair and  quite a bit more of it.
 He was playing an accountant who half the show thought had a cocaine problem
because he sniffed alot.  It turned out he was allergic to a sweater various
characters wore.

Hello everyone,
This is clearly off-topic--have other members of the list received whiny
attacks from the person who attempted to besmirch NB's character.  I
saved the message, but have not forwarded to anyone else on the list.  I
will only share it with the entire list if the list goddesses okay this
activity.
This "communication" from the "deluded one" is full of impertinent
presumption.  Frankly, I do not care for being told what I think.

i.e., "I do not drink the blood of man/I do not drink it/Nick I am")...

A while back Jaye (FK Listowner) advertised for volunteers to help keep up
with the routine maintenance of the list.  Basically that meant someone to
respond to the (literally) hundreds of error messages the list generates
each day.  Jamie [The Illustrated Cousin] and I foolishly volunteered and
Jaye quickly accepted. We have nothing to do with list policies just
subscription maintenance.

Since then we have been trying to keep up and respond to listmember
requests for help as well as the error messages.

If mail to you is bouncing; resulting in error messages to the list owner,
per her instructions you are set to nomail.  Nothing personal, you didn't
do anything wrong, mail just isn't getting through to your mailbox.  To
keep things flowing smoothly it is necessary to set you nomail.

You may turn your mail back on by sending a message to the listserver
<listserv@p.......> containing the command "SET listname MAIL".  [You
may substitute DIGEST or INDEX for MAIL if you prefer one of those
options.]

If mail to you is being returned marked "User Unknown" (or something
similar).  Per the list owner's instructions you will be removed.  Again
nothing personal, you didn't do anything wrong, mail just isn't getting
through.  To keep things flowing smoothly it is necessary to remove you
from the list.

You may turn your mail back on by sending a message to the listserver
<listserv@p.......> containing the command "SUBSCRIBE listname
firstname lastname".

Hope that helps clear things up a bit.  For myself, if there is anything I
can do to help with subscription problems, just drop me a line.

Subject: Turning the mail back on

Please let me add just one little piece of advice to Don Fasig's
instructions on sending commands to the listserv. I think he forgot
to explain that you should *not* put quotation marks around the commands.
They are there in his post because otherwise the listserv will think he's
trying to give it commands in a message to the list and will reject it.

Thank you, Don and Jamie, for undertaking this task. From personal
experience I know what an overwhelming responsibility it can be!

psychotically egotisical or criminally insane to have an affair with a fan. I

        It seems to me that in asking the question, you also answered it.
This list knows the difference between fantasy and reality.  I don't know
about other fandoms; FK is my only fandom and, in fact, the only thing I
routinely watch on the tube (though if a new series of Red Dwarf comes
here it will get my avid attention).  I blather on endlessly about Vachon
but it is 100% pure fantasy, and I know it even when I purport to be
lusting after Ben Bass. I mean, you could say that I stick to the silly
because I know it's silly and I Love Silly!  It would make me pretty
uncomfortable to hear actual discussion of FK's people's lives and pets on
the list, I think, though I enjoy the occasional private gossip as much as
anyone.
        This came home to me recently when I heard that an old buddy, who
after we fell out of touch became an actor on another TV show with a cult
following (now defunct) might have had a baby.  I asked on the bbs for
that show, and discovered the fans there know all about his wife, his
house, his... you get the picture.  I felt like I'd invaded his privacy
terribly, just learning that yes he had become a father lately.
        I'm still pretty new to the list and yet I've already been made to
feel immensely comfortable here.  We on the list are each other's friends,
and do not live vicariously through the show's actors.  Again, because I'm
a major geezer, I can remember back and compare this to endless
discussions in early Star Trek fandom about Shatner's and Nimoy's wives
and affairs.  It was salacious and powerseeking and ultimately unfriendly
or competitive as amongst the fans. That 'v&v' post would have fit right
in; in this group it was a howling and unwelcome faux pas at best, and a
malicious maneuver at worst.
        This group's firm grip on the difference between fantasy and
reality has, I think, *everything* to do with why the listfolk swung into
action in a real-world way that may indeed pay off with a fourth season
for us -- and we did it in a staggeringly short period of time.  Last
Wednesday the SOS-FK effort passed into television industry legend, and
it is only one month old.  The civility and intelligence of the
atmosphere on this list is directly responsible for that having been
possible.
        As I've said privately to a few people, I wish I'd been around
since this list's beginning.  In the two months I've been here, it's been
an amazing education (what people on this list can't tell you about
bustles, absinthe, Russian history, and the proper handling of pathogens
in the lab is not worth knowing) and started a couple serious friendships.
And God willin' and the crick don't rise, maybe also helped to keep FK
alive.

        I would like to suggest that in the new batch of letters to USA,
people who have come to like, or at least made their peace with, the

Subject: Thank you and congratulations

       Thank you and congratulations to the NATPE strike force, for your
positive energy, persistence, creativity and the very entertaining reports
you posted.
       It was interesting that the first response of some of the pros
attending NATPE was that you must be paid shills sent in by one of the
companies. That tells us 1) that you didn't behave like amateurs 2) that this
kind of organized fan campaign is very unusual.
      I was haunted by the anecdote about the weary producer who wished his
programs had received the kind of support that we are giving Forever Knight.
I wonder what shows they were and whether they *deserved* backing from fans.
If Fortune smiles upon us, I think the industry is going to look at the fan
base differently. Maybe some of the producers will start to see us as a
resource to be respected and worked with, not just an ancilliary profit
center. People power may not be a substitute for corporate financing (yet),
but it has leverage.
       While we are passing out goodies, perhaps we should send TriStar a
case of liniment for their elbows? :-)

        All the members of this list who backed up the strike force by
contacting TV stations, contributing money, designing and ordering the
handouts and prepping the strike force on what to say, deserve the reward of
their choice.

       I agree that those of us who still have disposable income left should
work on retiring the debt for the NATPE supplies. I'll send in another check
once the latest accounting is posted.
       Maybe after that, we could chip in and send another kerosene space
heater to the Forever Knight production crew. It sounds like they need that
even more than Hershey's Kisses.

Using straight logic, of course it would be most helpful and least
confusing to new members to have a full and complete listing of what is
and is not acceptible behaviour on the list.  But with all practicality,
if we had to write down every possible thing that would be unacceptable,
the FAQ would be the size of the Oxford English Dictionary.  As you said
yourself, her mistake was obvious.  It would have been obvious to
anyone.  Common sense, common decency, and a healthy sense of respect
for others is required on these lists, nothing more.  That shouldn't have
to be in any FAQ to be recognized.

But what really troubles me is the sense of fear I hear in your post,
that someone else will get kicked off without warning.  You guys *don't*
need to sweat this!  We (by that I mean the listowners, whose judgement I
support) don't sit around here stalking newcomers, waiting for them to
make a mistake so we can boot them forever from the list.  That's silly.
Newcomers make mistakes, same as everybody.  Honest mistakes are a fact
of life, and we all expect it to happen.  99.9% of the time, the person
is bombarded by helpful messages on the correct way to do something :),
and that's it.

Now, from the gist of the rest of your post (and *please* correct me if
I'm wrong), I gather that you think the v&v poster should not have been
booted because she wasn't given the opportunity to realize her mistake,
and have a second chance.

My understanding, on the other hand, is that the poster specifically said
(again, correct me if I'm wrong, I don't have a copy of the original to
check) that she wasn't even a fan of the show, so it wasn't hurting her
at all to not be allowed to post again to the list.  She didn't care,
she was just forwarding for a friend.  So this event doesn't take any
skin off her nose, it simply keeps her friend from using her address as
a window to the list, which was precisely the desired effect.

Yes, I agree that both the author and the poster "should have known
better," and I think that anyone who may come after them should also
"know better."  I don't think that it warrants a mention in the FAQ,
though that is entirely up to the keeper of the FAQ.  But I disagree that
her mistake was understandable.  No matter what the state of journalism,
sensationalism, or the world today, this is Jaye's world.  One would hope
we can make this a more civilized place, where we don't *have* to say
everything, but can hope that we all already know what is and isn't
acceptable behaviour before we post a thing.

Am I a terrible and incurable optimist?  Perhaps, but I've said my
piece. :)

angsting vampires?? After all, he *is* refusing to drink!

Oh boy. I can see the book now, in a place of honor on my book shelves....

I maintain that she was drugged, and even so he had trouble snagging her;
and I definitely thinks she remembers everything that happens.  I don't
think he's going to catch her off-guard again, and I think she's better off
taking care of herself than relying on Nick to do it.  (He's always that
tiny smidgen late...)

Oh, yeah.  They'd be good together.  They'd challenge each other, whereas
Nick would only make Natalie miserable.

And I still think she'd wipe up the floor with him, no contest.

Has anyone ever noticed that most of the weird threads that spin out from
my posts have something to do with food?

Has anyone noticed the striking similarity between Lorelei's sentence and
the phrase, "Snap, Crackle and Pop"?

Crunchy, Yummy and Garnish.  Boy, there's a sales pitch that'll convince
TriStar.

Hi to All Aussies and expatriate Aussies (hi Richard ) on the list.
Hope you all had a great Australia Day (26th January) weekend.

Our Brisbane group of Forever Knight fans will be having a get-together this
coming Saturday 3rd February. Aside from the usual viewing of our favourite
episodes, we will be discussing our contributions to the SOS campaign. We
have also been asked to give a presentation at an upcoming Babylon 5
convention here in Brisbane. So we will be planning for that event.This
convention committee didn't 'experience' our last presentation.
Consequently, they don't know what they are getting themselves into. (very
evil grin)

If there are any Brissy 'lurkers' out there, or if you plan to be in our
area next weekend please E-Mail me privately for details.

You're kidding, right? Of course he would be! :)

Yeah, wouldn't we all. :)

Isn't there a scene in a first season episode in which he doesn't have a
shirt on? Okay, there was something draped in the way and you couldn't see
*everything*, but still... I'm trying to think of the same of the episode.
It's the one where some inspector's wife confesses to shooting someone in
self defense. Nick had no shirt on in the flashback. The copy I have is a
bit fuzzy, so I could be wrong, but I have watched that episode a lot, just
in case... :)

Guess we'll all find out Tuesday nights, but indications are that it

No. Everyone should be writing to Jon Feltheimer at TriStar, to Kay K
at USA and to their local syndicated station.

That would be nice, but practically speaking, it's not really something
most of us can do.  What we SHOULD be doing, imo, is trying to ensure
that the February sweeps achieve a better than "2" rating. Then the
syndicators will get more $$ for their advertising, which means they
can pay TriStar more for FK, which means TriStar doesn't need another
investor.

Frankly, from what I've been told, the financing deal for FK is so
complex that adding another partner would be very difficult, if not
impossible anyway.  We stand a MUCH better chance if we can get those
ratings UP.

More on this later.

I love it.  Snap, Crackle, and Pop has my vote.  Can't you just see the signoff
"Name, a Snap, Crackle, Pop"  some of the list would definately be inclined
to change their factions.  Could really be interesting in the next war.
