>Asimov had demonstrated that his Three Laws aren't quite foolproof.
He has only demonstrated how to write a detective story - give a fixed set of data in the beginning, with well hidden weak spots in the logic, then develop the story to hit the weak spot. Emphasis on forcing the main characters to Make A Big Moral Choice, i.e. the whole thing is a setup to get them into such a situation, everything else is decoration, salad.
To show how strongly Asimov (nee Ozimov) believed in his three laws, one only has to count how many times they were spelled out throughout the robots series. Almost makes me think they were just a distraction.
Just last night I watched "I, robot" again, and it's yet another iteration of this schema - the big evil machine is actually respecting the three laws in essence, if not verbatim in the detail.
