_Blade Runner_ didn't seem to be very L.A. either... More like San Francisco on demented Globalist fast-forward... -- Hanuman Zhang "Freedom is just chaos, with better lighting." - Alan Dean Foster "... simple, chaotic, anarchic and menacing.... This is what people of today have lost and need most - the ability to experience permanent bodily and mental ecstasy, to be a receiving station for messages howling by on the ether from other worlds and nonhuman entities, those peculiar short-wave messages which come in static-free in the secret pleasure center in the brain." - Slava Ranko (Donald L. Philippi)
