Welcome to Gaia! ::

When you turn your bike into a hoverbike.

(if you have a kid)When you dress your baby up in an Ewok costume just for fun.
When your baby comes out as an Ewok.(creepy)
When you call your principal The Dark Lord.
When you own all 8 of the movies and have a library filled with SW books
When you join a Star Wars guild just for the fun of it.
When you have had a dream about a way to make a sword like a lightsaber.(I have. I know, its wierd)

i have been talking to some theoretical physicists at my school most of them are trekies, but one has remained true to the light as a Star Wars fan. he and I think that the best bet towards a light saber is a magnetic feild generator in the hilt creates a light saber blade shaped feild and also in the hilt is a powerful power source that can create a superheaded plasma the magnetic feild will hold the plasma within the blade shape and will repell any bolts of energy, light, or other contained and un-contained plasmas. I. E. blaster fire would be repelled by the magnets as would the opposing magnetic feild of another saber.

plasmas are incredibly hard to create to begin with and only in large scales like in nuclear reactions and such, the power source would have to be incredible to create a plasma the size of a saber blade, not to mention the magnetic feild would be incredibly hard to create and manipulate too.

but hey... in the future all those doors will open... i think people should start opening them now... so i can have a freak'n light saber before i die.

When you know every single member of the jedi council(from the old republic, clone wars, and new jedi era), their species, their date of birth and death, and their homeplanet(all off the top of you head).

so you mean something like the plastic toy light sabers where the plastic tubes collapse into themselves and then into the hilt? only steel/other metal of course.

good luck!

when you run around with a stick making lightsaber noises.
