I mean, even if the laborers own the means of production, they still have to labor. So finding a "job" you love would still be a viable goal. Or am I missing something obvious here?

It should probably read: "You can choose to subsidize medical treatment for the rest of the world, or die."

My gut feeling is the previous therapist(s) said something along the lines of "It's not you, it's me."

To your first point, the droids in question do seem to follow the "easy designations" as you put it. In fact, they are often referred to in the film by them. Examples: Luke often refers to R2-D2 as just R2. And C-3PO as 3PO.

I still don't buy into the notion that these were unique "names" at all and not "model numbers" though, but thanks for the discussion.

If C-3PO is a 3PO series protocol droid, I would find it hard to believe that only 26 (36)? were ever made and each one had a unique name. R2 is an R2 series astromech droid. I would plead a similar case there as well. Especially given the probable number of astromechs built/needed.

I do this to provide a stable surface to make collecting the honey easier. It also reminds me of real life bee hives as built by bee keepers.

Thanks for the reply!

If the system was muted, and I saw two vertical lines I would assume that meant "press here to pause." The state of "the thing" to me has nothing to do with the symbol on the button.

How would you then, reconsile the the state of "the thing"on system that had individual buttons for functions such as play/pause/fast forward/rewind/record/eject/etc? Would the thing be playing and paused at the same time?

If the service is poor, I still leave a tip. A nickel ($0.05) is usually enough to let them know that you did not forget to tip, and that you felt $0.05 was all their poor service was worth.
