[...] so you had a book based on
a movie based on a book, something that I can't think of having happened
before.

Actually, wasn't this the story behind "2001"?  That it was based on Arthur
C. Clarke's "The Sentinel", that it was made into the movie, and that a
whole new book had to be written to explain what was going on...

	And on a similar path, how about "Mame" the movie, based on "Mame"
the Broadway musical, based on "Auntie Mame" the movie, based on "Auntie
Mame" the book!
