@averroes,
Yes, there are still a few of us "browncoats" around. "Firefly" was great series. I hated the "killing off" of some favorite characters in the movie "Serenity", though.
Can't think of a quote off the top of my head -- I remember after a big fire-fight when the young doctor, dedicated to healing, felt remorse that he had taken up arms, saying that he had never killed a man before, and the shepherd responded (paraphrasing), "I was there, son, and I'm quite certain you still haven't killed anyone."
