...Herbert devised not just a teeming universe but the rudiments of several new languages, and Lynch works hard to squeeze the novel's richness and oddness into 2½ hours. Dune begins with an animated lecture-leaving a mass of factoids swimming through the moviegoer's brain-and ends with the cry "For he is the Kwisatz Haderach!"

In addition, since one of the valves used in Clark's heart broke two weeks after the heart was implanted, Schroeder's heart contains...
Administrators of academic research programs are worried about a brain drain. If star doctors and grant winners like DeVries can be lured away by conglomerates, what will keep the younger researchers in the universities? Says Dr. Don E. Detmer, vice president of health sciences at the University of Utah: "There's no question that if a place like Humana goes after our programs, we can't compete."
