I remember that PKD did a complaint when they translated his "Ubik" into German. The translator messed up a key term, because he got the German for: "I am the brand name. When all things began, the brand name already was. The brand name dwelt with God, and what God was, the brand name was. The brand name, then, was with God at the beginning, and through him all things came to be; no single thing was created without him." - Philip K. Dick (text taken from Jeff Fisher's <http://www.nettime.org/Lists-Archives/nettime-l-0010/msg00027.html>) Sometimes, though, I think for the Net, with its almost infinite emphasis on advertising, this is more or less true.

Mr Bushell is an British tabloid journalist and used to write for the Murdoch press - I'd only recommend reading anything of his material if you really, really, really hate literature or journalism and need reinforcement for your prejudices.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ --> >> Stay informed about: Garry Bushell's "The Face"
