I saw thise meme on dine's journal:

Post a list of five famous people you've been within a few feet of, and one you haven't. The challenge is for everyone else to guess the ringer.

Lance Bass
Peter Capaldi
Jason Carter
Derek Jacobi
Vincent Kartheiser
Brent Spiner


Anyone?

Thanks for guessing! Everybody (correctly) thinks I have been within a few feet of Brent Spiner (at a convention, and also when I went to see him in '1776' on Broadway and got his autograph). The odd one out is a cunningly-chosen genre name, Peter Capaldi, whom I have not encountered.

I don't remember you ever talking about Babylon 5 so my guess is Jason Carter. My memory isn't very reliable though :-)

At the convention where I met nopseud, Jason Carter was the big-name guest, and he was merrily (people kept buying him beers) wandering along the corridors being nice to people. We had a brief chat and agreed that we were enjoying ourselves.

Plus, indeed, I was definitely a B5 fan, albeit not one who wrote fic about the show. That fateful convention was a "Blake's 7/Babylon 5" convention, and later turned into a general media con. I wish there were a B5 re-release on Blu-Ray, like the TNG one I am watching, but I don't think the show was shot in very good quality to start with. A pity.

I've been toying with the idea of buying the show on DVD but it's very expensive. Some day maybe.

PS Why don't I have any Babylon 5 icons?! It's just wrong!
