Word has it that the search for a full-time surrogate for the soon-to-be-appearing-only-on-a-part-time-basis Fox Mulder in "The X-Files" has kicked into high gear. The New York Daily News said today that four, er, somewhat low-wattage, actors -- Lou Diamond Phillips ("La Bamba") , Bruce Campbell ("Jack of All Trades"), Robert Patrick ("The Faculty") and Hart Bochner ("Anywhere But Here"
