A person can be sincere and still manipulative, in Kosh's case.
If he believes he's right, perhaps he's willing to manipulate anyone
toward that goal, if it's worth it.

{original post had no questions}

Thanks. Yes, I think we've cast some great actors in the show,
and they only continue to improve.

Many of us on the show are fans of fighter planes and military
history, especially producer John Copeland. So we've taken to giving
the Starfuries nose art...in fact, the near-legendary WW II flying
squadron the Flying Tigers actually gave us *permission* to use their
logos on Sheridan's fighter.

Because G'Kar needed to hit bottom, real bottom, before he
would be receptive to the message...because time doesn't mean to the
vorlons what it means to us...and because he was finally mentally
receptive due to the dust.

No, didn't actually pattern the starfury after a plane, but
rather tried to see what would work most accurately in zero-atmosphere.
