Ray Bradbury dies at 91

http://io9.com/5916175/rip-ray-bradbury ... chronicles

Unlike many previous reports of related people dying, this one seems to have simply been of old age and it was his time to go.

From the comments in the article:
Somewhere in America, a boy tap-dances a on a tuned segment of discarded wooden sidewalk, calling his friends to run over the hills by moonlight...

Out on the Veldt, the animals pause for a moment, as though something unseen had passed through their midst...

Somewhere on Mars, a new silver fire is burning to welcome him...

By the river, a Book stops it's recitation for the day, to remember a fine man who wrote such fine, fine things.

Thanks be, for Ray Bradbury, who taught me that there could be poetry in prose.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!


I give Ray Bradbury the Caesar Salute as a final gesture of respect. Godspeed to him.

Made me very sad to hear this earlier today. R.I.P. :(
