yeah, the time issue in ESB is tricky--for me, fudging it to a few weeks works. luckily, i love that movie so i'm willing to cut it plenty of breaks.

i personally think yoda and obi-wan intentionally compacted and reduced the level of training for Luke in reponse to what they probably saw as the decay of the jedi order thanks to hubris and arrogance. i like to think they thought that training Luke in a more vague and general way would contribute to his appreciation and awe toward the Force and his powers, as opposed to the Jedi of the past, who knew the Force so well and studied so much that they almost took it for granted.
