OK, I'm doing a little better now.
Chatting with
eleri has gotten me calmed down a little. I have another project to work on, and may contact Hero Games to see what they are looking for in terms of free-lance work.

West End Games still owns the rights, and swears that someday they will do something with them.
SJG is trying to get out of the adaptation game, and keep GURPS generic. If there ever was a media adaptation I'd like to do, it would be Phil Foglio's Buck Godot. But I really need to get some more experience under my belt before doing taking on the immense task of both convincing Phil that I could do justice to the character, and also convincing Steve that the setting is unique enough to merit a book.

For some reason I have this weird idea for a version, if no one else does, that uses the (severely) simplified Phoenix-Command type rules from LEG as found in Aliens RPG/The Lawnmower Man RPG combined with a character creation system similar to the Twilight 2000 2.0/Dark Conspiracy method where you elect cerain "careers" for a period of time.
I mean, it sounds like it's got the same lethality of the show...
...and allows you to create interesting characters with a wide variety of backgrounds without as much "I have X, Y, and Z skills... I must've been a..."
