Feedback

First off: this show is fantastic and is proving to be the E.D. medication to the collective Internet nerdgasm.

Regarding the ""George Lucas impenetrable wall of suck"" or the Duke Nukem Forever Syndrome, I will point you to, as far as I'm concerned, the best song the White Stripes ever wrote. It is called ""Little Room"", is less than a minute long and the lyrics are thus:

Well you're in your little room and you're working on something good but if it's really good you're gonna need a bigger room and when you're in the bigger room you might not know what to do you might have to think of how you got started in your little room

This idea permeates any and all creative fields in such a profound way, it's staggering that Jack White was able to tap so succinctly into such a strange and universal truth. Keep up the great work fellas.
