[net.movies] Where the names R2D2 and C3P0 came from

lsk (12/28/82)

Lucas said in a recent article that both "names" R2D2 and C3P0 were just
interesting "sounds" he'd heard along the way of life.
I remember that R2D2 came from his standing around one of the film editors
who needed R2D2; reel 2, day 2.
So much for mystical meanings
