It doesn't worry you that someone knows there are different "Driods" and even knows their serial numbers?
Jesus, he probably votes too. :twisted:

Storm Troopers aren't droids.
They're clones...

The first Stromtroopers were indeed clones but Palpatine brought in conscripts and recruits so the army is now primarily made up of birth born troopers alongside some of the remaining clones
It's always possible to "out geek" me

however I get all the geek jokes and references in BIg Bang Theory, have Wil Wheaton, Bill Shatner & Nathan Fillion on my Twitter along with half the cast of Stargate & Firefly

Following the collapse of the Empire at Endor, stormtroopers were an increasingly rare sight in the galaxy. It was not until Grand Admiral Thrawn procured a working set of Spaarti cloning cylinders that the Imperial ranks of stormtroopers began to be replenished.

"Following the collapse of the Empire at Endor..."
You mean there was more?
That was the end of Return of the Jedi wasn't it?
Silly me thought that was the end of the story!

Well to be a real Trekkie you need a Uniform and to go to conventions preferably wearing said Uniform .... of course I would never be so geeky as to wear the Star Trek Uniform which I may or may not own to do some shopping in my local co-op on my way home from a convention nor would I be mean enough to deliberately defy my husbands command never ever EVER to be seen in public with him whilst I might be wearing said uniform (if I were to own one) and then turn up at his RAF base wearing said uniform, go through the main gate past the gate guards, walk across the middle of the parade ground in front of the Station Warrant Officer and get escorted to my husbands Squadron by the SWO just as the entire SQN were packing up for the evening - of course had I done anything like that the look on my hubbys face would have been well worth it :twisted:

There's been a large number of books written to continue the series.
The Empire still has a remenant. They are working towards relations with the Gallactic Alliance. With much resistance from the Moffs.
Han, and Leia were married, and had 3 children. The twins Jaina, and Jacen then their younger son Anakin. Anakin died during a war. Jacen turned to the dark side, and was killed by Jaina.
Luke married Mara Jade. She was known as The Emperor's Hand. Luke turned her from the dark side. They have a son named Ben. Mara was killed by Jacen Solo.
In the current set of books Luke has been bannished from the domain of the Galactic Alliance, and is seeking information on why Jason turned dark.

The books are written with George's permission. Also I'm sure he gets a hefty percentage of the profits from these books. By the way, I forgot to mention that Chewbacca is dead. He was on a planet that had a moon on a deteriorating orbit, the moon crashed into the planet killing Chewey... That would be the book Vector Prime written by RA Salvatore. Killing Chewbacca was George's idea, but Salvatore has taken a lot of flack for being the guy that killed Chewey.

Having a moon crash into you will tend to spoil your day...
