That is it. I am 44 going 45. I take it that because you concentrate on the 80s anime, you are much younger than I. That being the case, have you even seen "Silent Running"? BTW, thanks for the pic. I know I have it somewhere on my HD, but after searching the other day, found it not. And my pics are...

I'll see about uploading what episodes I have tomorrow. I'm just waiting for the new month to start so my speed limits can be lifted

Have you done so? If so, please specify the URL.

Not Atom, the robot that got his arms. That was the joke!

Atom's borrowed arms and legs. There is a really funny pic from "The manmade solar sphere" (I think that is the 80s title) in which having wrecked his own arms and legs, Atom somehow convinces another robot to swap with him.

I've just finished downloading the episode 1 fansub. It took me two weeks on a modem. Your patience is commendable! I have had cable internet for about a year now, but remember all the times when dial-up gave me trouble. I could not connect, I lost my connection, etc. I share the thing with...

I really love the new way his leg jets activate, and the bit where Astro has a brief flashback gave me goosebumps. (I can't say any more without this being a spoiler! ;) I think the flashbacks do add an element of excitement (reminds me of "Kung Fu series! ;) . When Atom has one, it could...
