   Okay, I couldn't resist, and went over and read it right away. He's an    
   entertaining fella.   
   Here's more on the Claudia/Jason panel drama.   
   From http://www.intellectualblathering.com/archives/2334:   
   >> We went to a Babylon 5 panel that was supposed to feature Claudia Christian    
   and Jason Carter together, discussing the relationship of Marcus and Ivonova.    
   Unfortunately, even we did not avoid Celebrity Drama this weekend (after    
   hearing how the Star Trek: The Next Generation panel fell apart). Claudia    
   Christian seemed to have decided to use the panel to plug for her current    
   projects and didnąt want to share the stage with her co-star. Initially, it    
   seemed that the back-and-forth between the pair was just good-natured    
   teasing, but about 15 minutes into the panel, Claudia Christian picked up her    
   things and left (apparently completely baffling the audience and Jason Carter    
   about what had been done to piss her off). It seemed like a completely    
   unexpected bit of prima donna-ish behavior from her, because nothing    
   particularly insulting had been said.   
   Jason Carter, however, saved the panel and managed to turn it into one of the    
   funniest weąd seen this Con. He didnąt seem to think it a chore to discuss    
   Babylon 5 or his character and was quite happy to answer questions put forth    
   by the audience. He was hilarious and kind and appreciative of the fans. <<   
   There's a comment under the post that elaborates further on it.   
   And, Claudia posts about it on her Facebook page, including this:   
   >> It was my half hour to talk about my new show and for the second night in a    
   row he would not let me get a word in edge wise. The first night he    
   prohibited me from showing the trailer i had cut especially for dragon con    
   and the second night he interrupted my half hour after 5 minutes. He was    
   drunk and obnoxious and if you perceive that as me being a diva then Im happy    
   for you to leave this page. Thank you to the rest of you who "got it"... I    
   had simply had enough of his insults and his trashing me out of his own    
   insecurity. Peace.<<   
   and this:   
   >> I am also sorry for the fans who were promised a half hour with me and a    
   half hour with him, no one from Dragon con stopped him from getting on stage,    
   crinkling his water bottle into the microphone while I spoke, interuppting    
   me, taking flash photos of me close up while I tried to answer    
   questions...they just sat there and let him ruin my talk...I love and    
   appreciate the fans and i felt that he disrespected them and me in behaving    
   like a boor. I'm very sorry it happened but i stick by my decision to leave    
   the stage, I have every right to leave a situation where someone is treating    
   me like that. X cc <<   
   Yeesh!
