    Default Ray Bradbury, R.I.P.

    Another starman bites the space-dust.

    These classics writers are passing from us beneath our noses.

    May his soul soar where stardust rains...

    There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.

    ____Ray Bradbury
    RIP, Ray. Thanks for making my youth a little less boring than it might have been.

    I would drink a toast of dandelion wine, except I really hate the stuff.

    Heinlein, Bradbury, Isaac Asimov - authors of the Bibles of my youth. At least Larry Niven is still around.
