More on the Missing Philip K. Dick Robot Head
From an article in the new Wired magazine:
"When Hanson arrived at the San Francisco airport, he finally realized he had left his bot behind. Hanson was determined not to lose his head, having already lost Philip K. Dick's. "I thought, 'OK, OK, everything's going to be cool; they're going to find this bag,'" he says. "There's no mistaking this bag - it's got a robot head in it. When you open it, it's just wires and flesh and a bearded dude's face.""
It's common for me to read some strange news report or see something about some new technology and say something like, "We're living in a Phil Dickian world." But when Philip K. Dick himself gets involved in that Phil Dickian world, then you just know things might just be getting out of hand...

I don't think Phil himself could have written a funnier story.
