We had him for 90 years, and while I didn't read everything he wrote, I thoroughly enjoyed much of what I did read. A brilliant, original mind. We're lucky he wrote.

Maryn, saddened but not surprised at his passing

Same Psychosis...different day.
He was one of my favorites, and one of the two writers who inspired me as a young teen to actually write. I am so happy I had the chance to meet him.

He gave me an autographed copy of '2010'. I treasure that book.

I treasure his IDEAS.
