If moisture farming is such a popular line of work on Tatooine, then shouldn't the climate be overwhelmingly humid?

Tottooine is so arid it takes a lot of vaporators over a large area to make moisture farming work. Also I would. Imagine a good spot would be in an area with good airflow and wind patterns to bring in what little humidity exists there.

Kind of odd that as easy as space travel is in star wars and how large ships can be no. One is importing water from cometary ice abd outer worlds in the system.

It's been overwhelmingly humid here in NJ... 

In Pretoria too and it's supposed to be spring.  :question:

Whenever I see Star Wars I think of how there was on some distant planet born a baby boy who grew up hiking the fields of his hometown, played with friends, learned to ride his zero gravity bike, lost his first tooth, played vacciball on the school team, had a pet rivnak who played fetch with him, he had a crush on a girl from Bat'kr, he made middling grades in high school and couldn't afford college, so he worked dead end jobs, got married and when his first kid was on the way he said you know I'm going to give this child a better life than I had, so he signed up for four years in the army to learn some skills, get college paid for, and he wrote his wife every day, sent his paychecks home, missed his family and reverse counted the days til his leave, and one day he was lying in his bunk when an intruder alert sounded while he was writing his dad a letter, and he grabbed his helmet and blaster and rushed down the corridor of his base, hoping this would be resolved fast so he could finish his letter, and bam, Han Solo shot him in the chest and he died.

Two things about that. 

ONE the audience would not accept a "silent" dogfight. Lucas researched it and found people liked the loud dog fights.

Two the ships sensors gathered data from the  area and created a virtual sound environment to aid the pilot in maintaining 3D situational awareness.

One of my students thought he would troll me by wearing a "TRUMP 2020" hat to class today.

He's like: "Hey Mr. Smith, look at this!"
I said:  "You are entitled to support whoever you want politically and express that however you like; that's the beauty of our system.  However, you cannot wear hats in the classroom no matter WHAT is printed on them!"

Everybody had a good laugh.
Troll attempt: FAIL.

So why get tech on it when in reality it's just a big budget version of FLASH GORDON serial and accept the fact it's not hard sc-fi and just high tech pablum ? That's like making excuses for any stupid movie to make up s**t for the sake of money. I NEVER go into a sci-fi movie thinking -"well-lets nit-pik at the science." Where's the fun in that?
And that I can dig. Honest bulls**t.

My cousin, who went on to have serious addiction problems, used to love to spin around and around when we were young hanging out at our grandparents' house, and she liked that feeling of falling over dizzy with the world turning around her, but when she'd talk me into trying, I'd just feel sick afterward, and in fact it can make me feel queasy remembering doing that. Shrug, just was thinking about that.

I kinda hope your cousin beat  her  addiction issues. I've got some.
