He's the man

While browsing at the book discount store in search of books I wish to acquire again, it was a let down that Isaac Asimov's books are very rarely seen in this part of the world. Getting hooked on Isaac was easy, as soon as my uncle told me of a character having a derivative of my name. At 14 years old having a name derivative featured in a book was enough reason to check it out. So even before Bi-centennial Man I, Robot or even AI, the idea of robots having feelings was already toyed around with.

It is impressive that for an imaginative mind is also a member of Mensa BUT was quoted to frown upon his co-members who are "brain proud and aggressive with their IQ's". The quest for at least a "Robots of Dawn" copy to share with the kids would be enough to make me jump for joy. Seldom do authors exhibit creativity and intelligence in humility.
