let Sheridan be voted out of power as soon as possible after that season 5 demonstration, whereupon Sheridan retires with Delenn to Minbar as a private citizen.

not that Churchill did that ;-)

BTW, while watching Londo being takenby the Keeper, I think I suddenly realized the point of Exogenesis - it was to get us used to the idea of species which merge with others. It makes the Keepers less unusual, and in a horrible way, more believable.

Other than that there is probably nothing to add to what has already been said. I shall join the general sob-fest...
