Paul of Dune was so bad it gave me a seizure that dislocated both of my shoulders and prolapsed my anus.

Leto II is gone for good, except for OM. The "pearl" was just that; a miniscule portion of what Leto was, and not a compressed version of the whole. The pearl that the worms have do not make them Leto, or in any way similar to him.

It's weird to me that there are real people named "Duncan Idaho." It's like people being named "Han Solo."

I worked with someone named Stilgar, about 9 or 10 years ago.
He was a typical white male nerd, an IT contractor.
It must've been his parents - and I never laughed, as I named my own son 'Shevek'.
