B - Bonsai Tree - Deckard has one in his apartment. There's also (the same?) one on Tyrell's office desk where Deckard first meets Rachel. Might signify interference in the natural development of a living organism - or they could just be there for decoration!

C- C-Setting, from DADoES. Referring to the Penfield Mood Organ (used to wake-up cheerfully!) Rick recommended Iran to wake with Setting "C", as he does to overcome the threshold barring consciousnes. (Damn, wish I had one)

Okay - we've done over 120 definitions more than the BRMovie encyclopedia - so we would have easily come up with the obvious ones. If I do create a glossary/encyclopedia, I feel justified in saying that we simply didn't copy BRMovie's effort.

Therefore I'm now removing the restriction of rule #3 - we can use the obvious terms to fill the gaps and also actor names.

D - Deckard - Like, duh?

K- Kipple, from DADoES, and Westwood game. Kipple as described in book, are unwanted or useless objects that tend to reproduce itself. The first law of Kipple is...Kipple drives out nonkipple.

Some of Dick's descriptions of it suggest an analogy to entropy.
