Oh ok, so some else did it but he got blamed for it.

As I recall, the shelf held some heavy equipment, and the weight was more than the shelf could support. It simply broke and spilled its contents upon him, killing him.

BTW, thanks. That was what I was wondering.

Dam, what trouble did Adam Link get in?

He was condemned to desruction, & as they were taking him from the courthouse, a little girl ran into the street in front of a garbage truck. Adam snapped the chains as though they were plastic toys, ran to the girl, & tossed her to safety, but was himself crushed by the truck. He was exonerated by this act, as it became obvious that he could have broken free and fled any time he wanted; and that he was upholding Asimov's laws by the act of self-sacrifice. In other words, would a murderous being save a child at the cost of its own life?

I see how this is similar to the 2003 Astro boy story line, I think what makes Adam link and 2003 Astro boy; in Astro boy the humans become scared of the robots, because they where different. And then the humans took them the wrong way. It’s hard for me to explain, but i hope you understnad.

I think you have the basic concept.

That’s because I’m finding it hard to tell you. i'm not like a normal person.

You should not put yourself down so quickly. We all have our problems, & I am a master of insulting myself. I have found that it is a habit that is difficult to break. You are too young to mess up your life neddlessly. I ask that you take a more positive view of yourself. Strive to improve the weak areas, but do not become frustrated at the rate of progress; you are young, time is on your side.

There are many people who just do not know how to put their thoughts into words very well. I was one of them, but I strove to improve myself. I now write very well, but when I was your age, I really stank at it.

You'll have to meet me to understand.
