Use the force.

Can you imagine what learning the force would have been like if Luke and Yoda had communicated by email?

Luke's starfighter is sunk deep into a swap and he wants to get it out.  He's read a few books about the force and he's practice a bit - in the privacy of his own home - but the best he's managed has been to accidentally rewind the video recorder.  So he pulls out his PDA/Spacephone and sends a note to Yoda: 

"Hi there Yoda,
My space ship is stuck in a swamp. 
I'm trying my my hardest to use the force, but nothing seems to work,
Can u help?
Luke". 

A few days later Yoda replies:

"Luke,
Nice to hear from you.  I hope you are well. 
Do, or do not. There is no try. 
LOL Yoda. 
Ps how's your dad?"

Anyway.  Glad I've got that off my chest.

I'm finding the whole TOCSoftware process a bit frustrating.  So far it has been very fruitful it really is hard and frustrating to do via email.  Jim, my yoda, has been very patient and helpful but I can't help but feel we could have killed this beastie in just a few days face to face.

That said, I'm pleased with what I've got so far and really looking forward to letting the big brains in the group help scrutinise then polish the tree.
