I take it that Repro Man refers to a movie? Having that image of the car
sure makes it difficult to read.

One of the best:

more of BB's quote:

J. Frank Parnell: Ever been to Utah? Ra-di-a-tion. Yes, indeed. You
hear the most outrageous lies about it. Half-baked goggle-box
do-gooders telling everybody it's bad for you. Pernicious nonsense.
Everybody could stand a hundred chest X-rays a year. They ought to
have them, too. When they canceled the project it almost did me in.
One day my mind was full to bursting. The next day - nothing. Swept
away. But I'll show them. I had a lobotomy in the end.

Otto: Lobotomy? Isn't that for loonies?

Parnell: Not at all. Friend of mine had one. Designer of the neutron
bomb. You ever hear of the neutron bomb? Destroys people - leaves
buildings standing. Fits in a suitcase. It's so small, no one knows
it's there until - BLAMMO. Eyes melt, skin explodes, everybody dead.
So immoral, working on the thing can drive you mad. That's what
happened to this friend of mine. So he had a lobotomy. Now he's well
again.
