    Rest in Peace, Mr. Bradbury

    I was delighted to be able to meet him several years ago at the BEA - Book Expo America.


    And this is BEA week, so it is somehow fitting that he has passed away now. His imagination was amazing, and he was a nice person as well. His books and ideas will long outlive him.

    Rest in peace, Mr. Bradbury. And sympathy and comfort to those who love you and grieve your loss.
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    I read The Martian Chronicles so many times I just about had it memorized! RIP, Mr. Bradbury.

    My favorite is Dandelion Wine, not really a Science Fiction novel.

    He was an excellent writer; far surpasses many authors today.
