Bob,
There was another episode, and it's been so long since, I've forgotten it. I believe Data found his 'mother', i.e. Noonian Sung's wife. They played violin together, and from that encounter, he deduced that she in fact was also an android, although she didn't know it.

So, you must wonder, if an android would not be self aware of it's status as a machine, could it go beyond it's programming to feel empathy, pain, emotion, and then swing it eight to the bar?

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!
