Let's do a little math here...
there are 365 days in a year...
8760 hours in a year...
525600 minutes in a year...
and 31536000 seconds in a year.
WHEW! That's a lot of numbers!

Did you know:

Werner Klemperer [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Werner_Klemperer], who played the bumbling Nazi prison Commandant Col. Wilhelm Klink on the old sitcom Hogan's Heroes [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hogan's_Heroes], was actually half-Jewish, and his family fled the Nazi party's rise to power in 1935. Klemperer's condition for playing the role of Klink was that his character always be foolish and easily tricked by the Allied heroes.

He was also an excellent violinist and pianist, and a trained opera baritone singer.

Mosquito repellents don't repel. They hide you. The spray blocks the mosquito's sensors so they don't know you're there.

There are more germs in the human mouth than in the anus.

The tentacles of the giant Arctic jellyfish can reach 120 feet (36.6 meters) in length.

All polar bears are left handed.

As of July 2005, China was the largest country in the World with a population of over 1.3 billion people (over 20% of the World's population).

Donald Duck's middle name is Fauntleroy.

About 17% of humans are left-handed. The same is true of chimpanzees and gorillas.

Sound travels about 4 times faster in water than in air.

The U.S. ranks 29th in overall life expectancy, which is 78 years.

The lightsaber that was Anakin's and then given to Luke was not actually blue. It was lilac.

It was on the second disk for The Phantom Menace. I think it was the long documentary. Nick Gillard (Stunt Coordinator) was talking to Ewan Mcgregor (Young Obi-Wan) and that was when Nick Gillard said it was just off blue that it was lilac.

I think that's bullshit dude.

"Lightsaber blade colors in the original Star Wars trilogy were initially designed to be either blue (for the Jedi) or red (for the Sith), as seen in the first two released films; Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope and Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back."

That's from WookiePedia and I have heard it echoed in various other publications. Just cause one dude says it in an off hand conversation does not make it so.

Come to think of it, they don't exist so why am I angry right now? lol, I have no idea, but no sir, you MUST be wrong.

I am wrong when there is no real answer to this? I am going off by what the stunt coordinator said. And considering the stunt coordinator works with the sabers and the actors I am guessing he knew about the colour. Why else would he say it was lilac if it wasn't true?
