Lance Henriksen was originally cast as the villain and Arnold Schwarzenegger as the hero. What was the movie?

That's the one Jamie. Schwarzenegger thought he'd make a better villain, thus was born the Gubenator.
You're up.

Never saw 2001, so I don't know. However, the letters "HAL" are the letters just before "IBM" which stand for International Business Machine

One view is Human- Artificial- Lifeform, certainly when the film first came out this was what the popular press said, but Clarke himself said it was Heuristic ALgorithmic. No idea what Heyristic is though  Come to think of it Algorthms are a mystery to me too

Okay, at almost seven years too late here is the question - in what book did the last homo sapien alive travel into space inside a whale?
