Okay, I didn't want to do this, and show my true geekiness here, but what the hell....
Star Wars lasers aren't really lasers...they are ejected and spun gas (Turbana gas being one kind, that's what Lando was mining in the Cloud City)
that are then ignited by the laser. (that's why the different SW lasers are different colors, different gasses, and/or laser crystals)
God I miss that show, "Beat the Geeks"...
