Ja, for perhaps over 100 years.  I have fallen desperately in love with Jody
Foster's Ellie Arroway from Contact, with Donna Reed's Mary Hatch from It's
a Wonderful Life, with Amy Madigan's Annie from Field of Dreams, with Ingrid
Bergman's Elsa in Casablanca.  Perhaps with sufficiently advanced virtual
reality, we could pick three or four of our favorite fiction characters and
make a composite.  Imagine a woman with Mary's beauty and kindheartedness,
Elsa's beauty and do-the-right-thing-ism, Annie's spirit, and Ellie
Arroway's brains.   Oh my.
