Ok,
there was something a while back, I know To was involved in this.
It's about the line "my own council will I keep on who is ready"

Well, Yoda said "our own council will we keep on who is ready" in TPM and he said in ESB "my own council will I keep on who is ready"

So they are re-using lines, and I didn't know!!! mad
Can this bring on new light for that discussion?

(thanks to my annual OT-marathon I figured it out smile )

LanceWindu
Huh, I didn't even notice they were doing that.

Ushgarak
Good Lord...

It's COUNSEL! Not Council! As in advice, not a body of councillors.

He does indeed repeat the line, though, as I pointed out to To in that thread.

LanceWindu
I always thought it was Council

ToMacco
I'm not gonna say anything.

Well, one thing. My whole point to my argument was the Yoda is the head of the Jedi, not Mace.

LanceWindu
Well it seems that Mace is in TPM, but towards the end it is Yoda who makes the decisions.

yerssot
In case you haven't noticed Ush, I CAN'T write that bloody language you speak!

well, you want to give some info, seems some Englishman did it first, ha!

LanceWindu
Maybe in our different countries, Council is spelled different.

Ushgarak
No. Counsel and council are entirely different words. Look them up. And feel free to check the scripts.

To's argument was invalidated by this confusion of the two words.

yerssot
now we all know how we can annoy Ush smile

Sorry, didn't knew you already told that in another thread

Ushgarak
Well, I have always been surprirsed that some people were confuseds by this.

"I will keep my own counsel" is a classic literary phrase, almost a cliche.

"I will keep my own council" is almost meaningless.

yerssot
Ushgarak, think!
How should I know this one?

Ushgarak
Because I assumed you were taking any script extracts from the BTM CD.

yerssot
no, I don't check that CD every five minutes

Ushgarak
You don't??!

yerssot
no, every 7 stick out tongue

Well, the testing of the weapons is fun smile

Ushgarak
Indeed it is!

Yerssot has asked me to close this thread. he feels that developments have removed its point. So I am obliging.
