The anti-Mars racism is also very plausible. |

I think the 'third age of mankind' is a bit too Lord of the Rings for me. There are rather too many echoes of Tolkien in Babylon 5 - it's one of its weaknesses, IMO. |

You know, we should start a B5 drinking game. A big gulp everytime Ivanova mentions she is Russian....

Now it occurs to them that taking the guardian out of the machine was perhaps not the best idea . . . |

What are the things your race has to achieve if you're going to dominate the galaxy? Organisation, leadership, law and order. FTL spaceship drive Artificial gravity Energy source Star charts Ability to manipulate energy to create food/water laseron destroyers (or equivalent) Instant communication devices instant translation machine (suitable for all languages, even those nobody has ever heard before) Female Officers (to keep the male ones sensible) Great background music Redundant telepaths Better space toilets than we have now! What doesn't change? Political (and personal) ambition Greed Intolerance (even if they claim they do) Fear of the unknown Stupid decisions Substance abuse "You're not sulking, I hope?"
