Pretty charming tale of a robot's interaction with the multi-ethnic spaceship crew (a sort of warm-hearted alternative to Asimov's robot story in the same issue), told in a typical Russel's tongue-in-cheek funny style. review: 25-Dec-07 (read in 1984) ---------------------------------------------- "Late Night Final" © Astounding, Dec 1948 The Best of E.F.Russell, 1978 --/ cool sf story "Legwork" © Astounding, Apr 1956 Far Stars, 1961 --/ cool sf story "A Little Oil" © Galaxy, Oct 1952 Deep Space, 1954 "Love Story" © Astounding Stories, Aug 1957 Microcosmic Tales, ed.
