  • No bad guys are good guys. And most good guys are not good guys, either.

    The Shadows, the Centauri and the PSI Corps are introduced as “bad guys” but gain a lot of positive aspects during the show without becoming “good guys”. The Nightwatch and the Earth Governement under president Clark are “bad guys” – but quite a few of there supporters/members become important “good” characters, like Zach Allan, Elizabeth Lochley or Susanna Luchenko.

    That’s my point about the Babylon 5 series – they deconstruct the good guy/bad guy meme. Mostly.








  • They should never have been consumed bitter. When they are frozen the bitter substance is destroyed. In former times this implied being harvested only after the first night frosts in autumn, never before. Nowadays there might be some more artificial ways to achieve the same result more reliable. (Perhaps by breeding, too, I’m not sure about this part.)

    Taste changes with age, too. The younger, the sweeter and the older, the bitterer people prefer.
