> How did you like Col. Lake?

I have to admit I'm not drawn to Col. Lake and I don't think it's
because she's a beautiful woman so there's no meow factor there. Gay
Ellis is also beautiful but I find her character much more
attractive. I sense a warmth to her that I don't in Lake.

I'm trying to think why I don't like her and all I can say is that
Lake strikes me as the type of woman whom I wouldn't want to work for
because she could have the capability of being a real b*tch. I'd
think she'd put the job before the person whereas Ellis would
consider the individual first.

Now having said that, there could have been some potential for Lake
to reveal more of the inner workings as her character developed in
the series. It's just unfortunate that that didn't happen. I think
Lake shows some of her softer side with Straker but I don't think
that counts. To my mind it just means that she fancies him doesn't
necessarily mean she's that way with anyone else.

I was thinking of your "who's your favorite character" question last
night and I realised that I'm quite a fan of Ford also. He may not be
leader material but he strikes me as the man you most want to have
around because he seems to be the one who's always doing whatever
needs to be done. Straker and company might give the orders but
they'd be helpless without Ford carrying out those orders.
