	[Does] Chewie . . . wear anything besides that silver
	ammo-belt? (which may not even be an ammo belt?).

``Ammo'' doesn't make sense with blasters. I think it's his tool kit. That's
how he was able to start reassembling C3P0 while he was still in his cell.

	Doesnt Darth Vader know that you never put all your prisoners
	together so they can comfort each other, regain morale, and
	plan how to escape?

Lando may have had something to do with that. After all, at that point
Vader hadn't yet made his final set of demands and may have still been
giving Lando some leeway to give him the impression that he was still
being allowed to run things.

	Anybody know whether Vader or OB1 draws first in their great battle?

I distinctly remember a view of Vader standing in the hallway with his
saber on, but held sideways, when Ben first sees him and before he
draws his own saber.

	How does R2D2 go down stairs?

KA-BUMP-BUMP-BONK-SPLAT. That's the easy part. The tough one is: how does
he get back up them?

In the radio play there's a reference to C3P0 lifting R2 out of the
escape capsule after they land on Tatooine.

	Why does Luke throw the food stick which he wont let Yoda eat
	into the swamp?

That, I thought, was a good touch. He doesn't want to eat it himself
after this slimy (you'd be slimy too if you lived in a swamp) green
creature has been pawing it, but he's too annoyed at said creature to
let HIM have the food. It's just Lucas' way of letting you know what
Luke thinks of Yoda before he finds out who Yoda REALLY is.

	What does the princess do her hair with after days of torture
	while in Solitary confinement?

Obviously her hairdo is the result of highly advanced Golgafrinchan
hairdressing tecnology which allows her hair to remain neat and clean
for months at a time.
