Word is just spreading that actor Tim Choate, known in the SF community for playing Zathras, the odd, third-person-speaking keeper (and all his brothers named Zathras) of the Great Machine on Babylon 5, was killed recently when he was hit by a car while riding his motorcycle on his way to appear in a play. Pat Tallman’s (Lyta Alexander) web site The Galactic Gateway has a message board with some details.
