APBM,
Do you think the new season of Heroes is going to be good?

I don't know; I've only ever watched bits and pieces of episodes.
APBM,
Is now a good time for someone who hasn't been following Heroes to start watching the series, or would such a person find the show hard to follow?

I wouldn't know; I never warmed up to the series.
Alpha Pi Beta Mu,
Is it a good thing or a bad thing that "Heroes" and "Lost" are now attracting huge audiences doing the kinds of stories Marvel and DC have been doing for 40 years?

I'm not sure. It would be good if the success of those shows is causing more people to read comics, but I'm not sure that's happening. (As an aside, I find it extremely odd that so many people think of comics as something far outside of the mainstream -- and thus inappropriate for the general public -- yet enjoy other forms of media that are influenced by or directly based on comics. For example, I don't have any non-MB friends that read comics or have ever had any interest in doing so, yet I have plenty of friends that enjoy the Batman, Iron Man, and X-Men movies.)
APBM,
Do many of your non-message board friends read comics?

Not many, but at least one. I worked with a fellow fairly closely for four years, and the topic never came up. One day, I'm at my local comic shop and who do I see? Kinda cool.
APBM,
What is your greatest regret?

The one that could build a computer with internet assess out of coconuts. Then I wouldn't have to choose.

Me! I think it would be fun to be in a movie, and I honestly can't think of any current actor who could do the role justice (or who even looks much like me).
APBM,
Same question!

The only actor I'd really trust in the role of me is Cate Blanchett (though I'd consider Tobey Maguire - but only if he was coached by Cate Blanchett). I would also like to state emphatically that I would never approve of David Hyde Peirce in the role of myself as I never knew any David Hydes I got along with.
