-- [ From: Richard Brem * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] --

Here's an interesting detail: 

Science Fiction writer Philip K. Dick, of "Do Androids Dream of Electric
Sheep" (="Blade Runner") fame, dedicated the German edition of his book "The
Man in the High Castle" (which won him the highest SF honour, the Hugo Award
in 1963) to Ernst Juenger. 
The dedication reads: "An Ernst Juenger fuer 'Auf den Marmorklippen'" and
can be found on p. 5 of the paperback edition
of "Das Orakel vom Berge" (Bergisch Gladbach 1989, ISBN 3-404-24117-7). The
dedication sounds somewhat cryptic, but if you're familiar with both "High
Castle" and "Marble Cliffs" you know how it's meant. 
 
Regards,

"Do you like our owl?"
"It's artificial?"
"Of course it is." 

Charming little dialogue between Rachael and Deckard, both
artificial (from the movie "Blade Runner")
