Interestingly, one of the requirements of the shows that began
under PTEN is that they must show a profit *the very first year*,
rather than having to wait for the long run...so B5 has been turning a
profit for WB since the first day.

Not that my statement reflects this, natch, and never will,
because then they'd have to actually *pay* me some of those profits....

Exactly. What a number of people tend to overlook is that if
you look at the structure of the show, the bigger the zetz that you're
about to get, the more I allow you a bit of breathing time in between
zetzes. So it's a safe bet that the longer the breathing time, the
bigger the ball bat....
