I knew it was time to graduate college when the incoming freshmen were too young to have seen Return of the Jedi in the theatre.

In composing my earlier note, I mentioned high schoolers who were born after Star Wars.  It didn't even occur to me to call it by the episode name.   The whole Han shoots first debacle was silly.  What happened to character growth?  So its insufficiently heroic to gun down Greedo?  Isn't he a smuggler anyway?  By that rationale, Han shouldn't have shot back at all - he could have just got up and walked away.  If Greedo couldn't hit from 2 feet, there wasn't much to lose by increasing the gap while showing the yellow streak down your back.
