Perhaps he was able to write something halfway decent given that he did it of his own initiative and with no deadlines. At least it isn't a script. It's not dialogue we're talking about, just the napkin-sized synopses that others will run with.

I'm surprised to hear myself say this, but I think it's good that GL is involved in that capacity. (But only that capacity.)

hear hear. I can also see lucas providing napkin-sized ideas to Disney. I think thats how he wrote the PT, probably while taking a dump just before shooting. I just hope Abrams and co. take these ideas and modify them like lucas's original collaborators in the OUT. The only idea from Lucas that Abrams and the production should take seriously are names of great catering services. ;D
