It's a character from "Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?"...which is to science fiction what "Alice In Wonderland" is to children's books, I think. I may change my name, though....it's getting on my nerves the more I use it.

Ah! I knew I recognized the name somewhere. Luba Luft was the opera singer in the book who may or may not have been a replicant. I think her character was changed to Joanna Cassidy's character Zhora in _Blade Runner_. Either that or her character was combined with a Zhora character in _Do Andriods Dream of Electric Sheep?_, but I can't remember if there was a "Zhora" in the book.
