Oct 22, 2022 at 8:02 | comment | added | JBH | @VLAZ Okey-dokey! Thanks for the explanation. What's curious is that my family and I owned and ran a small publishing house for about 10 years. Among the many things we learned is that almost nothing is original. I once had someone argue with me that the Starkiller in SW:TFA was completely different from the original Death Star because it was powered by a sun. Yup, round. Destroys planets. Same thing. Just bigger. | |
