What an absolutely lousy week.
I remember a decade or so ago, when the greats of the SF Golden Age started to pass away, thinking how odd it was to be so close to the birth of a genre that you could watch its creators pass away. But now, I begin to think it's normal for us with our fast paced lives. Television and cinema are newer than science fiction. Rock and roll, newer yet. It's going to be so strange when Bowie and Jagger die of old age.
Jon Postel.
Strange and sad times.
