Absolutely not, I've never heard of this "Babylon 5" you speak of. I came up with the name Universe Today completely on my own. Anyway... the domain name was free. :-)

You haven't heard of Babylon 5! This link has all the info, questions I myself have been asking about it.

Well here is a link to the Universe Today, from Babylon 5

Just for the records,



This is what I am taking about!

If this comes to pass Fraser, it looks like the inheriters of the Universe Today legacy are going to break the rules somthing chronic ! Going right into the politics of Alien socities.

I have just started watching the second series, I don't know if the UT names sake is in the first???

Anyway, glad to hear you didn't rip it off, it is such a good idea, (UT, not ripping somthing off!).

Your website may actually account for the appearence of the ALTERNATE UNIVERSE TODAY, that I keep coming up with on my searches.

UT is far more likely to evolve than the Alternate!! In the series, it doesn't have the forums anyway, so you have a better concept!

Keep up the great work, glad to see you back !
