What would happen if every single Browncoat put $20 into a large bag? Think of what we could accomplish... Then again, maybe not.

Also... I can kill you with my brain.

I am a Firefly fan, but I'm waiting for apologies from certain people before I would consider financing a production.

There was no Firefly nor Serenity listed on their website of exhibitions about a week ago.

Hello Mr. Gates glad to meetcha.Who says Firefly doesn't have fans in high places. If I have offended you I am sorry and I apologize. If I see a new FF project start up next week I will know that my apologie was accepted.

Thank you,Z

btw you wouldn't happen to have a little extra coin laying around that I could borrow

Well now , we will just have to get busy fixing that straight away ! How about a Campaign to Sponsor the Ariel Ambulance paying a visit to Mr. Allen's Sci-Fi Museum ?

Also, if you're on the other side of the pond, don't forget that we have our own (not quite) eccentric billionaire in the form of Richard Branson (head of Virgin and the guy who has already announced a regular passenger service into space).

Excellent notion , Teachdaire ! There is a connection , actually . Rutan and Allen's joint venture contracted with Branson's Virgin Galactic for the purpose of building the next-generation (SpaceShip2) of passenger-carrying spaceships .

It would be great if Branson and Allen would collaborate to re-light our Firefly !

If they acquired the rights together , a Branson company could distribute Firefly content in the UK and the rest of the EEU , and one of Mr. Allen's companies could distribute here in North America . They'd work out some sort of arrangement to carve up the rest of the world , and soon there'd be growing hordes of Browncoats on every continent !

Helping bring more beneficent billionaires to the ' Verse ! -- The Browncoats !

Keep the Faith . Share the Love . Feel the Joy !

Do you think we should send DVD sets to them? I suppose all three get loads of fan mail (maybe Paul Allen not so much, although his name being in the papers with SpaceShipOne might have upped his profile a bit). It's worth a try, I suppose, although I'm not sure finding the addresses would be easy.

It's a very long shot, but we've shot long before.
