"In fact, Seldon only finally admits to himself that his wife is a robot at the time of her death," I disagree: "So you see, Hari. [sic] I'm not really what you want." ... "Dors, dear, even so, I don't care." This follows her saying that she had never felt love. (p. 434 of PtFBantam 1991). Now, the word "robot" is not spoken here, it seems pretty obvious. On the previous page, we've read just after a discussion of R. Daneel Olivaw (a disguised robot): "You are a different kind of helper". "In what way? Hari, say it. If you hear yourself say it, you will realize how crazy it is." ..."I will not say it because . . . [sic] I don't care." He continues: "I will take you as I must. You are Dors and, whatever else you are, in all the world I want nothing else."Kdammers06:53, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I just want to say I whole heartedly agree with Kdammers on this, I just read through the "Prelude to foundation" book, when i read the lines quoted above it was quite clear to me
that Seldon knew that she wasn't biologically human with respects to length of life and physical strength. "In fact, Seldon only finally admits to himself that his wife is a robot at the time of her death,"
stood out to me when I reached this page (after just ending the book) as something I could not incorporate with the book I read, the comment above echoed my thoughts exactly. --Bjornmm (talk) 23:18, 29 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
