Talk:McClellan Mister Handy

I don't have the requisite knowledge of this wiki's standards and conventions to put it in myself, but it ought to be mentioned somewhere that this bot and the McClellan household are a huge nod to the short story There Will Come Soft Rains, by Ray Bradbury, and the animated short by Soviet studio Uzbekfilm. In the short, a robot is left attending to its dead masters for eternity inside a nuclear bunker, reading them stories, laying out their clothes, and so on. The family in the short are called the McClellans, and the robot routinely speaks to Mrs McClellan's empty chair. Inside the cryopods, a young girls' remains lie next to her teddy bear. These are all closely referenced in Fallout 3's McClellans, and the McClellan's Mr Handy even reads to the children the poem that inspired the story and short.
