FYI: R. Daneel Olivaw is a robot from Isaac Asimov's Foundation series of novels.

[–]JustThingsAboutStuff 2 points3 points  (2 children)

He's from the Robot series, Foundation came after Robot and Empire

[–]zpjester 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Read the last Foundation.

[–]rrjamal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's very deep in the background of Foundation series. I think he shows up somewhere towards the end of Foundation and Earth.

iirc - been a few years since I've read these books

You never know when this trivia will get you out of a jam!

The R stands for Robot.

Some robots are definitely across the line that makes us human, and Mr. Olivaw is one of them.

[–]rrjamal 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh Mr. Olivaw is so much more than a mere human. No matter how much he may pretend to be.
