Jedi Archives In Dublin Library?

Posted by Hemos on from the acknowledge-the-creators dept.

bill_gates_jnr writes "When Attack of the clones came out many Dubliners thought that the Jedi Archives looked similar to a landmark in Dublin, the Long Room in Trinity College Dublin. The library administrator of TCD, Robin Adams has story written a letter to Lucasfilms suggesting the company should acknowledge a debt to the original architect Thomas Burgh. " I was in the Long Room a few years ago - it's a gorgeous room. But while we're acknowledge debts, perhaps Lucas can also acknowledge a more significant debt.

    I just heard some sad news on talk radio - video game character Mario Mario a.k.a. "Super Mario", was found dead in his NOA home this morning. There weren't any more details. I'm sure everyone in the Slashdot community will miss him - even if you didn't enjoy his video games, there's no denying his contributions to popular culture. Truly an American icon.

    Also, while he's post comments on articles, perhaps Hemos can also perform tense-consistency checks on what he writes.
