Did anyone catch the scene when david was watching a movie with peter o'toole in it? David watched the movie then styled his hair like peter O. The scene seemed to indicate some sort of individual thought from david. The scene sticks in my mind abit.............has anyone got any insights?

"how do you feel?"-" great, next stupid question"

An android that has the rationale to style it's own appearance, would forgo some sense of individuality, no?

@Engineering: Hard to disagree with your presentation. NB, for those who missed it "Big things have small beginnings" is one of several quotes from [i]Lawrence of Arabia[/i] that David makes.

The most terrifying fact about the universe is not that it is hostile but that it is indifferent
