He's certainly tenacious for a man of his many, many years.
As far as stamina goes, it's because this is all he does. That's why Nebaris managed to be so irksome to everyone; he literally had no life outside of KMC. He spent the majority of his inordinant amount of time making accounts and trying to get on people's nerves.
I'm tempted to PM Nai and notify him that AC has cornered the market on House-mimicry. Nai'll show him how its done (with flair).
LOL. You should read our little PM war. AC alternates between hitting on me and accusing me of immitating him.

Mea culpa. Don't make it hostile. I haven't seen the film in a while. Still though, like all character in-story explanations, Han's word (of all words) is not taken immediately as canon. It's not canon at all in fact, since the height of the Empire only 4 years later saw 25,000 Star Destroyers in the Navy. Never mind the countless other frigates/support craft/fighter-carriers etc. And seeing how as it's the entire Empire we're talking about here...
ah...so wikipedia is canon yet the film isn't?
i see...
nice try
Jaden's an idiot. Don't get me started. Check out his post to me in the Top 5 Best Guitarists thread.
how cute...
"You argument=epic fail?" Wow, what a child.
best not to venture outside your comfort zone...might not like what happens.

Wow. You can make a false analogy. You are now as good at debating as a proponent for YE creationism.
Darth Vader has specific knowledge about Luke's heritage. There is no reason to assume that Han has a similarly intimate knowledge of the composition of the Imperial fleet. This line of argument won't get far. Kindly find another one.
Han Solo could say it all he wants but just because it is in the film doesn't make it canon. Here is a good example:
In Revenge of the Sith, Anakin Skywalker tells Padme that "he is more powerful then the chancellor and he came overthrow him," yet we see that he can't overcome Obiwan in battle, the same Obiwan that Yoda says (which he has the right to say since he knows how powerful Obiwan is since he has known him most of his life and fought with him in the clone wars) that Obwian will never be strong enough to overcome Sidious.
All character opinons are not canon/fact but they if they know a lot of information on a subject/person they can make an informed decision yet we don't know that Han has such knowledge of of the imperial fleet.

Why not?..he would have huge knowledge of imperial fleet given that, by the nature of what he does, he risks his life trying to continually outwit the imperial fleet.
this would suggest he has a decent degree of knowledge about types of imperial ships at the very least.
I've outrun Imperial starships, not the local
bulk-cruisers, mind you. I'm talking about the big Corellian ships
now.
besides...the only argument i need is this
As far as the EU section is concerned, the films are the most important canon.

He might have a "decent knowledge" about the types of different ships, but how on earth do you hope to explain his intimate knowledge of the makeup of the Imperial Fleet? He hasn't seen records, he has never seen the whole fleet together, and he wasn't part of the Imperial Court, so he has no reasonable method of acquisition of this information. Don't you think that the Alliance would appreciate the suddenly infallible Han Solo a little more if he told them the exact composition of their enemy's forces?

The EU doesn't contradict the movies, so it is still canon. Han Solo isn't an infallible 3rd party source so there is no clash: He was simply wrong.
