In regards to how they stop a lightsabre, when amphistaffs become rigid they vibrate at an incredibly high frequency. This allows them to flatten their bodies such that while vibrating, their edge sharpens to a molecular diameter. I would assume that it is this energy that allows them to stop a lightsabre. Also, note that cortosis would not be involved in any great amount as it shuts a lightsabre off completely, it doesn't just deflect it.

Don't know about Physics....but if they bred the things to be basically non-aggressive and to live on a diet high in Cortosis it might do the proverbial "willing suspension of dis-belief" trick. I really want to see the pics......haven't read the books yet........ LOL! Works for me! And I have not read any of the YV books either... I stopped after the Thrawn Trilogy. I own many of them, but I haven't cracked the bindings just yet! I'm more into the Prequel EU for now.

I haven't read any of the new order books either, Leda. You're not alone. The last one I read was the "SUrvivors Quest" by Timothy Zahn.
