Darth Vader/The Green Cross Code man, Dave Prowse is the latest name to depart this earthly realm... he seemed like a blimmin' nice bloke, too

The search for a cure to Asthma continues in the realm of the Sith now. :up:

Did you know it? A psychological survey from the 80s, done for an academic paper at some US university, found that kids' sympathy and fascination mostly was not for Kenobi, Luke, Han or Leia, but - Dath Vader.

Like in fairy tales, too, it often is the villain, the evil, hte monster, the dark anti hero that catches most of the young kids fascination.



Bright heros in shiny armor are boring. :D
