Well, don't overdo it. Hopefully, others will follow your fine example!
So... What did you write after that first line?

next lines:
"but I read on an Internet message site (fireflyfans.net) that you were unaware of the movie Serenity & why it is #1.
You two must go buy / borrow a copy of the box set of the series Firefly, the series Serenity is based on. It was cancelled in 2002, and since its demise and rebirth on dvd & the movie Serenity, the series box set has remained a bestseller on amazon.com (This morning it was #20 in tv dvds...5 years after cancellation!) Believe me, you will love this show. see the series before watching Serenity."
And I won't fax again...Maybe he read the fax & will see the series before talking about it on air.

Excellent, Mav! Perfectly worded!
Back about 7 months ago, while Preva was on maternity leave, I was actually able to talk at length with some of the other screeners (Priva's kinda terse), and one, Chris, was an actual Browncoat!
We talked for a good five minutes, and I suggested he circulate his Firefly DVDs around the office there, and he said he would.
I just called to see if he still works there (after I asked if anybody else's been calling in about Serenity: "Oh, yeah. Lots!"), and Preva said he only works on Fridays.
I explained to her (briefly) how Chris is a fan of the series that Serenity was based on, and owns the DVDs.
I also said that while I loved the movie, I loved the series a bit more, and she seemed to respond to that.
She promised to pass it along.

I also listened to Mark and Brian that same morning and when Mark started to read the list, I almost knew what number one was (since Star Wars was #2), and I was right. So, I called in as well and was put on hold for about an hour, until I was cut off. So I emailed them and of course mentioned the Firefly DVD set, and too watch the 14 episodes first before judging Serenity. I just wonder if either of them will even "get it", and not give it a chance to sink in? I found that it got better the more you see it. Anyway, I will have to keep listening to see if they pursue it. Did someone say they may have access to the Firefly set already?

Ahhhh! So I'm not the only Browncoat who's a Mark & Brian fan!

Well, when he said, "You're never gonna guess #1, because I'd barely even heard of it..." I went, "Nawwww! Couldn't be!" When he said "Serenity", I did every step of my Happy Dance short of jumping up & down! (Didn't wanna disturb the tenants downstairs.

So I'm not the only one that happens to! I'm feeling better every minute!

Gee, I thought they didn't take emails anymore!
What address did you use?

Yeah, one of their screeners is a Browncoat, but he only works on Fridays, so I'll have to check back.
If not, I'll just have to donate my set!

They just replayed the bit where they talked about Mavourneen's fax on "Past Moments"!

I'm a legend in L.A!
Here's to hoping they realize how great Firefly is...and start spreading the word.

They just did five minutes on Gomer Pyle, and the comedic brilliance that Frank Sutton brought to the show as Sgt. Carter, so just imagine what they'd do with Firefly!

Darlin', you'd be a legend anywhere you're known.
