Here's an interesting link to that Tunisian location where some scenes of the SW episodes were shot.

At C4 Andy and I sat in on a talk by David West Reynolds (I think that's his name.) He talked about how the Tunisian sets were just left behind by the studio, (after all, who knew a low-budget sci-fi flick would change history!) He used trading cards to identify locations in Tunisia (rock formations, etc.)
It was very fascinating and you could tell he was very passionate about what he does. He did this freelance and is now the official Lucasarts Historian.
Probably top 3 events I attended at C4!
I think Mike was at Macy's at the time and didn't make the panel!

Guys, I've heard the rumors...did Mike really get a kiss from Carrie, or is he suffering from delusions of grandeur?

delusions of grandeur?
Nope no delusions, I have an autograph and a picture of her. But since no one else wanted to go meet her, I was all alone, cept for the thousands of folks that were in line with me.
LOL it was actually the highlight of the trip as I had told my wife that if I ever met her I was going to get a kiss.
I told my wife that years ago, and lo and behold that is off of my checklist hehe.
I called the wife soon after and told her that I got a peck on the cheek by a princess.
=)
