Have you read the latest concerning ENRON:
http://www.startribune.com/stories/804/1402822.html

Apparently, the bankrupt energy company, Enron's troubles began when a clique of execs formed a company called CHEWCO Investments LP, who proposed letting Chewco buy, for $383 million, another Enron limited partnership named . . . Joint Energy Development Investments or JEDI. Enron also had some other financial satellites called KENOBE, and OBI-1 Holdings.

There is more about it here:

Obviously, the force was not strong enough in them!

And apparently, Lucasfilms are upset about it!

I think SITH or VADER or maybe PALPATINE would be more accurate acronyms for anything to do with Enron! :lol:

Can't blame Lucas for being mad. Who'd want ANY association with Enron and their shady dealings? Greed is the path of the Dark Side of the Force!
