Sabre vs. Saber

It's light sabre, not lightsaber. Probably to avoid any copyright/plagiarism conflict with the Star Wars films, or something... I quote: "As they entered the Library, Wolverine and Mister Pickles saw poor J. Boogie, who was hanging on for his life after being on the receiving end of Bye-Gon Jinx's old light sabre (I guess we now know who got to keep the sabre after Bye-Gon upgraded to that double edged model)" (emphasis mine).

well noted. i'll make the notice on the spelling of this in the misspellings page. still, a note of the difference in spelling between lighsabre/light sabre and lightsaber (as that is the proper spelling, via shown in the wikipedia article) should be placed in Trivia, as it is interesting TNT did this, especially when everyone who sees it knows it to be a lightsaber...thereby already infringing on the copyrights of George Lucas. --Jacob 21:27, 25 Oct 2006 (CDT)
