A BLOGGER DARKLY: Charles Murtaugh promises to drag Blade Runner into the cloning debate and I am suitably psyched. Lessee here, Blade Runner had to do with humanoid replicants who were identical to humans except at the emotional and, I guess, chemical level and who were bred to fill specific roles in society (soldiering, plutonium rod disposal, prostitution). Charlie's analysis is going to proceed from somewhere in there, I'ma guessing.
