We seem to be having a rash of people confusing the movie and the book
scenes, lately. I find this odd; several instances just in the past month or
so, when nobody seemed to have any trouble distinguishing them before.

Not surprising if you figure that "yon celluloid object which mayest naught
bee naymed" was released in VHS and DVD formats around the same time. With
the onset of summer months, and the extra leisure time it brings many folks,
it is not surprising that people have been watching it (mayhap repeatedly)
and therefore getting "neural cellulose" - the unsightly wrinkles and sags
of logic that comes from overindulging in empty calories.
