As a child robots obsessed me. My favorite was POT, a Korean word for friend. I
danced with her, let her walk by clapping my hands and talked to her. She always answered my questions, but when I neglected
her, OH MIO MY, she was furious.

Now I'm a grown woman robots still make my heart beat faster thanks to Asimov. I read most of his stories. His creatures have brains, have dreams. His robots are machines made by engineers, who build them with inherent safeguards. The first Robot Law was "Don't harm human beings."

Science fiction is more than science. It's also storytelling. When the science in it is long out of date, the stories remain enjoyable, at least Asimov's novels do.

Science does advance. My new robot POT-TWO will fantasize. I hope she will have complete unexpected possibilities.
