For those of you who don't know, he was the guy who wrote the series of books starting with 2001, A Space Odyssey...
Great man, great books, and special thoughts for him...



RIP

I dont think I have read any of his books.  But I have a lot of respect for good authors.  At least he made his impression on the world.  Im sure he will not soon be forgotten.
