RIP Ray Bradbury

[markem]

"LOS ANGELES (AP) - Ray Bradbury, the science fiction-fantasy master who transformed his childhood dreams and Cold War fears into telepathic Martians, lovesick sea monsters, and, in uncanny detail, the high-tech, book-burning future of "Fahrenheit 451," has died. He was 91."

He will be missed. I've taken in recent years to quoting and/or summarizing ideas from Fahrenheit 451 to explain so much of what goes on today in the world.

He definititely left his mark on the world of liturature and science fiction.

R.I.P Mr Bradbury. You will be missed by many!

Bradbury gave me my introduction to great sci-fi & fantasy literature waaaaay back in the early '70s when I read The Martian Chronicles. His works will live on.

Nobody steps up to take the place of these greats. The world has lost a giant thinker but at least we have his works.

On my bookcase are two extremely worn out paperback books from my grade school years: Fahrenheit 451 and the Martian Chronicles. I suppose I have read every book by him. He always has been and will forever more be one of my top 5 favorite authors.

Well, I think Frederik Pohl is still alive, but of the rest of the Golden Age SF writers . . . Clarke, Heinlein, Azimov, Poul Anderson, and many others . . . Bradbury was one of the last. He shall be missed, but he shall never be missing.
