Wow, now my timelime has not only be featured on SF-Radio.net, one of the biggest german SF-Newssites, but also on the JMSNews-Forums. I kinda feel proud

Interestingly enough, I updated it just a couple of minutes ago to incorporate Voices in the Dark

You should feel proud of that work. I direct people to it all of the time.

It's interesting to note that -- unlike every other generally-accepted timeline out there -- the Official B5 Chronology (which appeared in the official magazine) actually places several end-of-Season-1 episodes ("The Quality of Mercy," "Legacies," the "Voice in the Wilderness" two-parter, and "Babylon Squared") halfway through the year, around June-July 2258, based on some cockamamie "assumption" that the author makes concerning the location of "Believers," with zero real supporting evidence whatsoever.

A real "WTF?" moment, to be sure, all centered around a throwaway line from Lennier in "Quality," in which he says something about having been on-station "for five months," which points heavily toward a botched script reference (actually, JMS *was* quite physically ill when he wrote that particular ep, and has stated that he has no memory of it...so, there you go).

That said, if one was to keep Lennier's literal meaning intact, he could have been making reference to another calendar form, such as *Minbari* months or some other uncommon galactic time-standard, which might differ from Earth's quite significantly. But you don't go rearranging an entire block of episodes based solely upon one isolated line -- at best, you move that specific story "back," as JMS obviously intended for "Babylon Squared" and "A Voice in the Wilderness" to come late in the season.

And am I bitching too much over this stupid, quibbling little point? Yeah, probably.

Well, the joy of following "continuity" and canon is that one has to deal with these things, and not just say "that was wrong." If Lennier said "five months" then that is what he said, and one must adjust one's thinking (and chronology) to that fact. "Obviously" is not an argument when talking canon. If it was, talking canon would be dull, dull, dull.
