Little known fact: A Stanford mainframe kept logs of the activities of the ‘wheels’ in a journal – the ‘journal of the wheels’. Young George Lucas, who briefly attended the university, found that journal, and became fascinated with the ‘Wheel Wars’. He later drafted a document that he called ‘Journal of the Whills’, based largely on what he read on those logs; this is the draft that later became ‘Whill Wars’, and ultimately, of course, ‘Star Wars’.
