Love your tag line--my favorite line from "Blade Runner."

But, pardon me for being tacky, isn't it actually "gate"...being a reference (Tannhäuser Gate) to the Gate to Heaven in Tannhäuser (this line in "Androids Dream..." beautifully written by Philip Dick IMO)?

D'oh! Good catch! Total typo on my part.

Blade Runner is one of my all time fave films, and the Dick novel is amazing.
