A NOTE FROM THE WRITER: When the television series Earth 2 ended so abruptly, I felt cheated--how could they hook me so completely into these people's lives, work their way so deeply into a fascinating narrative, and then just leave it unfinished, with no explanations and no resolutions? Then when a friend put me on-line, I discovered that I was far from alone in my feelings--you guys were pissed off, too, and doing a bang-up job of creating your own resolutions while demanding an explanation from the network, the production company, and anybody else you could find. So when all of the details that kept rolling around in my head as I watched and re-watched my videotapes of the original episodes started to come together into a possible way of going on from where they left us, I wanted to share it with you and see what you thought. Thanks to everyone who e-mailed their comments--I hope I answered everybody. And I hope no one who liked "Kamikaze" up to a point is disappointed in the way it came out. If you are, tell me; I can take it. (Naturally, any positive comments are more than welcome as well.)

Anyway, thanks (especially to Frank!). I hope my stuff helped you guys through the drought as well as everyone else's stuff has helped me.
