I haven't seen the movie D.A.R.Y.L., but from what I've heard of the plot,
and the current discussion of plagarism suits, I wonder if anyone's noticed
the similarities between D.A.R.Y.L. and John Sladek's "Roderick".  Both are
about a robot-boy who is adopted by a family.  Of course, Sladek's story is
positively insane, but the idea is there...
