Or, it could be that he was being coy when he said he didn't remember them. Afterall, he was a hunted man, and this was the son of the dude who wiped out all your buddies. Even though Luke didn't know it. He also lied to Luke when he said that Vader killed his father. Or maybe he did a Jedi mind trick on himself to wipe HIS memory.

Like how unbelievably small the galaxy seems to be? How you're certain to run into every fucker you've ever met again and again?

Mabye Obi-Wan's moment of sensing "millions of souls being snuffed out" refers to Lucas changing the storm-troopers into clones...

That is one of the things I was wondering. In IV, when Luke busts into Leia's cell she says "Kinda short for a trooper aren't you" or something similar. There were also two troopers talking chit-chat when ObiWan disabled the tractor beam. I never have gotten the feeling that the clones were much more than automatons. So are there ranks of troopers who are not clones? Are most of the clones killed off in the wars?

They did not seem real chatty at the breakfast table though...
I figure at least some of the troopers had to be conscripts- the pilots anyway (as Luke was wanting to join the flight academy).

Because they wear the same outfits but they are like totally black dude which is the coolest colour.
Surely the fact that the Stormtroopers didn't sound Australian showed that at least some weren't clones?
I hate this argument.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Did Lucas not replace all the trooper's dialogue in the revised-revised SE? I heard he intended to (though I dont really watch my "normal" special editions and I'm sure not buying the new ones on DVD anytime soon).
I know he replaced Boba Fetts meager lines (thus Jeremy Brett's status as a sci-fi convention staple is put at risk).

Maybe Lucas intends to replace all of us with movie-watching clones that will stand inline two weeks before the premier brandishing plastic lightsabres

I don't think he replaced the Troopers' voices. Ep 4 is only one I've seen of the brand new super editions and I was listening for that. Don't know about Boba Fett, though, as I haven't seen ESB yet. I guess it would make sense.
I would imagine, though, that after the Clone Wars, the stock of Clone Troopers was pretty well depleted, and something tells me that the cloners on Kamino wouldn't really want to fund a galactic civil war. Or maybe they started putting easter eggs in the clones, like, if anyone says "lightsaber", all the clones that hear it start wetting themselves and swearing at Palpatine Terrets style.
Either way, I think the ranks were probably opened up to include non-clones sometime after the clone wars.

Mabye the Kaminoloids are secretly responsible for the Stormtroopers exceptionally poor targeting skills. (pictures thousands of crosseyed Jango clones).

A major continuity gaffe. In Return of the Jedi, Luke and Leia are having a private intimate chat on Endor prior to Luke meeting his father. In this conversation, Luke asks Leia for if she remembered her biological mother and what she knew. Leia responds that she does remember her mother and has impressions of her being "very sad". If Amidala dies in the next movie giving birth, then how did Leia have memories of her mother?
