It was the dawn of the third age of mankind. Ten years after the Earth Minbari war. The Babylon project was dream giving form. It's goal to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call. Home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanders. Humans and aliens wrap in two million five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace. This is the story of last of the Babylon stations. The year is 2258. The name of the place is Babylon 5.

"The fire department is on the way."

"Which is nice for society, but not very useful for burning people right now."

I mean, the fire department "being on the way" really doesn't help people who are at the moment burning.

See how dumb it sounds when you write it out? See how obvious it is, so obvious that it doesn't need to be said because no one is saying otherwise?
