Sharp-kun: Given the amount of maintenance staff around, I do wonder how much of what the Evas actually are is kept secret. You can't very well expect them to maintain something they don't understand. Could they perhaps know more than Misato?
Reichu: I suspect almost everyone knows more than poor Misato. But you're right. I have a very hard time believing that these staff somehow are in the dark about the Evas, or, at the very least, about their organic nature. Their job kind of necessitates knowing "more than the average bear".
And on a completely unrelated note, the right-hand worker here scares me.
