Sad news this morning. Wonderful, pioneering science fiction writer Ray Bradbury passed away yesterday at the age of 91. Not too shabby, really. Ninety-one years! It's almost like being a time traveler, seeing the world change over the course of a century.
We've entered that time when the greats from my youth are passing. Maurice Sendak, and now Mr. Bradbury. It makes me want to take up the torch and write something astonishing in fiery letters fifty stories high. High enough that they can be read from Mars, or Venus.
Everyone, go out and read yourself a copy of "All Summer in a Day." That's Bradbury. It stays with you.
Thank you, Mr. Bradbury, for the insight, entertainment, and education. You will be missed.
