I like people who care.

And he cared the most of all.

Hes the originator of some of the most beautiful moments this show has had.

This is his last episode for us.

I shall miss him terribly.

But Im so excited to see what he accomplishes next, and Im happy to call him a friend.

We had made some huge changes in the writing staff and suddenly found ourselves with only two writers left.

She had grown up working onSmallville, starting as an assistant and working her way up to writer.

I put quotes around grown up, because when she started with us, she was still incredibly young.

Now, as I write this, she is sitting and waiting to hear the fate ofher first pilot.

Join me in wishing them well.
