A thank you to Chris Baker (Wired Mag) and Leland Chee (Lucasfilm)

Well, I was only a few years old (yes, dating myself here) when Star Wars, Episode IV made it to the theaters. A fan from day one, my mom bought me toys, models and all kinds of gear so my brother and I  could pre-tend to be saving the universe!

Well, the article in Wired Magazine this month (Wired-16.09, September 2008) by Chris Baker (after meeting with Leland Chee at Lucasfilm) is awesome! If you get the chance, pick it and read through it ... even if you're NOT interested in the Force or Wookies!

Just one excerpt from the article/website:

So Chee spends three-quarters of his typical workday consulting or updating the Holocron. He also approves packaging designs, scans novels for errors, and creates Talmudic charts and documents addressing such issues as which Jedi were still alive during the Clone Wars and how long it takes a spaceship to get from Dagobah, where Yoda trained Luke Skywalker, to Luke's homeworld of Tatooine. The Keeper of the Holocron takes this very seriously: "Someone has to be able to say, 'Luke Skywalker would not have that color of lightsaber.'"

I saw this online, as well: Leland Chee, Keeper of the Holocron.
