(...) All I can say is their system is dumb, dumb, dumb. Queens are elected for terms, and senators are seemingly hand picked, not elected. So yeah, Amidala's two terms expired within the 10 years since EP1. And since then she's been appointed (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.starwars)

|
I'm not a huge Star Wars or sci-fi fan, but I did just see the new movie. I have a few questions that I hoped some of those steeped in SW mythology might help me answer. First, Padme Amadala is a senator now? Why is she still not Queen? Did I miss (...) (22 years ago, 20-May-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Does anyone have up-to-date contact details for Dorian who posted to these groups a while back? Both email accounts I had are now dead, and the two snail-mail home addresses are getting me no responses...

Thanks a lot, Dave. It's a pretty easy design that can be implemented in just about any pod without much effort. I'll work it into my other pods in the next few weeks and make up a conversion page and part list so anyone can use them. -Bruce (...) (22 years ago, 18-May-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Agreed. "Shoot him, dad!" Yeah, great role model. (...) The LEGO SW sets run the gamut in terms of scale. I think the 7140 X-Wing is scaled properly, while the Millenium Falcon (7190) or the Sith Infiltrator (7150) are not. My impression is (...) (22 years ago, 17-May-02, to lugnet.starwars)
