d'Oh!
Thanks for the correction! -- that makes a lot more sense now. Shame on me,
and I even have the RotJ script book. :-(

Hmm, good call. Very odd. Hmm...so was OWK ever (in Ep4) supposed to have
been a Jedi Master? Or was he still only a Jedi Knight? At the end of TPM,
Yoda said something like, "Confer upon you the level of Jedi Knight the
council does." Maybe Yoda helps OWK advance from Jedi Knight to Jedi
Master? In any case, yeah, I guess we can hope for some kind of training or
instruction from Yoda in Ep2 or Ep3.

Maybe Ben wanted to hide from Luke the fact that his master had made a
mistake and let himself be slain... (I guess his fatal mistake was
continuing to fight Maul alone rather than waiting for Kenobi to come
through the force-field and fight Maul two-on-one.)

Hokey religions and ancient weapons ain't no match for a good blaster at
your side. :)
