   Here's a question for you SW/SW-TESB/ROTJ fans... how many people
in either of the first two movies did Darth Vader actually kill by
his own hand? Recall that it was Tarken, not Vader who wasted the 
planet.
   I recall only seeing him choke the commander of Leia's ship plus
laser blasting a couple x-wings in the trench of Death Star, not to
mention alleviating Obi-wan of his material body.
   Did we see him kill anyone in TESB? Couple of his own commanders?
Maybe he isn't as bad as we think?
Hell, after all, Luke killed *everybody* in the battle station
(death star) by *his own hand*, so he really isn't as good as we want
him to be.
