Yes; see my other message. But the term "space" is such a catchphrase for
lego folks...

Yeah, and space (lowercase 's') can include Star Wars, but sci-fi can't,
according to those in the know about the difference between sci-fi and
fantasy...  B-)  <duck>

Actually, Star Wars belongs square in the middle of that thing known as
Sci-Fi ("skiffy" I've heard it pronounced).  It's "hard science fiction"
that SW doesn't fit into.  Although the SW technology is a bit closer to
HSF than Star Trek's.

Not that I like SW or ST any less.  Well, Voyager's "Omega Molecule" almost
pushed me over the edge...
