Am I the only one who would defend the Technomages...ok those in "The Geometry of Shadows" were craptastic, but Galen is one of my personal favorite characters. In addition, I'm probably the only guy here who liked Crusade, except for the influenced TNT waste ("War Zone," the messed up order, the really important episodes never made).
Back on topic, Byron must die. He is only useful as a tool in real life to point out over-patriotism and satirize it (on a ceiling beam along side "9/11 Never Forget" is "Remember Byron!" Thinking about it the Kung-Fu tactical station and religious fanatic Rangers were worse. I can probably remember even worse things if I push away more memory repression.
