Prime Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 Definitely a loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabretooth Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 I wouldn't call it a loss, good Prime - he did, in fact contribute quite a bit and that is what made him what he is. His time has come, and I can only be thankful for those wonderful works he has written, and to know that I lived in a time where a writer as intellectually prolific as him lived - one who shall be, without doubt, remembered for centuries. Rest in peace, sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aash Li Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 May his soul find the intelligent life amongst the stars he wished to find. Rest in peace. *sniffles* I think it says something about how I get broken up by the "father of all nerds" type people like Clarke and Gygax, but the hollwood types that croak dont even phase me.
