What's that Phil K. Dick story in which the conceit is that the world has no continuous existence-- it is repeatedly just set up a moment ago by something like a stage crew? Thanks.
The Philip K Dick story "Adjustment Team" became the movie "Adjustment Bureau". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustment_Team
The Twilight Zone story with the blue maintenance guys who fix things minute by minute is based on a Ted Sturgeon story. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Matter_of_Minutes
I'm told the basic idea was by Descartes -- he thought the world was full-up with particles, so they couldn't get around past each other, so God had to destroy and re-create the world at each moment.
