Thanks for tracking down that quotation; my google fu was not very good yesterday, and I gave up after a page or so, but it was driving me crazy.

Are you going to keep evil Lex imprisoned forever? Because if he gets out, it wouldn't be pretty. I like the idea that Lionel would stay good without evil Lex to goad him back to his old ways, but I still at least half-believe he was faking his transformation, so I am torn. (I really really would love both Lionel and Lex to stay good, but I guess I have no faith it would work out in the long run.)
