A fitting memory of it. Watching a documentary about it again has reminded me of the extreme horror and extreme spectacle of it!

Great poem summarising a scene which does seem very moving, after looking at it on your link. I may have seen it before, but had forgotten. This idea of an android with a conscience, and a memory, but nonetheless a job to do, is very powerful! He...
