- badboys213, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Glad to know Lucas has an army of stormtrooper actors to call on 24/7.
- BigManOnCampus, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1NASA has fallen a long ways. They used to inspire the public and alter the perceptions of the young towards science and engineering with feats of courage and audacity. Now they stage cheesy public-relations events just to maintain their nearly extinct presence in the American psyche.
