Mira Furlan of "Lost" and "Babylon 5" dead at 65

Quote:
There is no corresponding word for "goodbye" in Minbari. All our partings contain within them the possibility of meeting again: in other places, in other times, in other lives. So you will excuse me if I do not say "goodbye." -Delenn (Babylon 5 5x21) |

Seems a bit harsh Dave, I find nowhere that she did other than good, and I failed to find any info about her "injecting herself" with the virus. From what I read she's been battling the disease for years.
Mind you I can't access the twitter links on my old XP machine!

She leaned left politically. That's enough for some.

I meant infected, not injected! I guess I did not use the right words, what i meant is she got an infection (is that the right saying?) with the west nile virus, meaning she got it like yo get the flu or anything, certainly not willingly.
