Arthur C. Clarke lived to be 90 years old, and died in Sri Lanka last Wednesday, March 19th, 2008.

Another one of my favourite authors gone to follow such names as Isaac Asimov, Douglas Adams and J. R. R. Tolkien.

Thank you for H.A.L., for the Monolith, for long journeys into the darkness of Space and the depths of the oceans, for making the beauty of fractals comprehensible, and for The Songs of Distant Earth.

He lived a good life and gave so much to so many (and for generations to come). RIP Arthur C Clarke.
