all those moments lost in time, like tears in rain

The title is from the my favorite scene at the end of the movie Blade Runner. A monologue by Rutger Hauer, in whole it goes like this:

 

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.

Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.

I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate.

All those moments will be lost in time, like tears...in...rain.

Time to die.

I got sideswiped when I learned that director Ridley Scott said that Deckard is not human but a replicant. A replicant is an engineered being, created for strength and endurance in extreme environments of space. Rick Deckard, played by Harrison Ford has been hired to dispose of some troublesome replicants that have hitched a ride back to earth.

For those of you who know the movie, do you feel Rick Deckard is a replicant or human? Obviously I feel he is human. Why would they create a replicant without superior strength or skills. And in the scene above Hauer says "you people" which indicates that the person he's talking to, Deckard, is human.

We're here - madness in the method , some bi-polar fun
