Anyway, the greatest sci-fi author of all time passed away.
Aurthur C. Clarke dies at age 90
I knew most of you probably do not know who this is, but he is considered the father of the telecomunications satilite, and also the author of the books "2001: A Space Odessey" and "Childhood's End" just to name a few.
alas, another great one is dead.
