Chicago - Computation Center Lines: 13 I don't want to make a major debate of this, but I will stand up for myself a bit. First, in regard to my comment on Leela, James said she was a favorite amongst male fans, and I was broadening that statement. Second, I thought the reason the doctor was so upset on the dock was the REASON she left, not that she was leaving. He said something to the effect of "You can't leave, *not like this*" because she was in tears, and he felt responsible since he had failed to find a solution that didn't involve a lot of carnage. I thought the way he stated the "I must mend my ways" thing was more like evaluating a failed experiment than remorse for loosing a favored companion. But then I've only seen that episode once. I actually enjoyed the companion list, so don't take my comments as criticism, only as friendly discourse. Joanna
