resign his position at once of course. :d evil: From that time? The "social metaphor" The adult swim audience. The historical context of astro in bridging racial divides in the post war era. At the time being found to be "Robot" was socially devastating. But these things are for Playboy magazine reading college bound rockers to ponder.... The underlying social consciousness of Anime and popular artworks by artists from the wild and spiritual 60's! Some would even go to great lengths to stamp out all interface with the social and mass Gestalt of of all the 60's intelligencia. But Astro is on Adult swim now and the audience can see the meaning on that level. If you have the curriculum you can decypher Astro. 
I actually had references to "his not knowing he was a robot" in my notes for that story, and even had a few other robots who also found out the hard way (the villain of ep 193), or were worried about rejection (Nukunuku (TV)) among others, but I was just too tired or anxious to upload the story. I have not even started on the next one yet, & its already nearly Thursday.
