Hmmmm...I know John Carpenter has this habit of naming his characters
after friends and crew members, but I noticed the other day that Leigh
Brackett co-wrote the screenplay for The Empire Strikes Back, leaving me
with a few possible answers to my questions:
1) LB is a guy who worked on Halloween and had the Sheriff named after him
2) JC co-wrote ESB under pseudonym LB (a la his pseudonyms in They Live
and Prince of Darkness) (yeah right)
3) No relation; big coincidence

Anyone out there who can help?
