I have been following this sad story also over the last several weeks. We
enjoyed him in B5, but I remember him best from Taxi, still one of my
favorite shows. Conway is the main straight man in what remains one of the
five funniest scenes from a sitcom ever televised ("What does a yellow light
mean?" -
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6FmbMiIxws&feature=related).

I did not know about this appearance on some kind of celebrity drug rehab
show (or even that there was such a show). The article also mentions that he
had to submit himself to the tender mercies of the Scientologists (he really
has suffered enough).
