> it's just fan rationalization FWIW I had found a source[1] that said George Lucas gave this rationalization on the Blu Ray commentary track. I found it by a search on "12 parsec Kessel run". Is this a retcon-level waving away of a groaner after the fact or what GL was actually thinking when he typed the line? [1] http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Kessel_Run |

That would be my guess, considering that it's a bit too hard-sci-fi of an explanation to fit in with the space opera writing of Star Wars.
It doesn't really matter, I guess, because the commentary would make it canon. Today I leaned; thanks :)
