Arthur C. Clarke, a visionary science fiction writer who won worldwide acclaim with more than 100 books on space, science and the future, died Wednesday in his adopted home of Sri Lanka, an aide said. He was 90.

SUXOR.

First Gary Gygax, then Arthur C. Clarke. Which super-geek is going to die next? Patrick Stewart?

Shh don't say that...I'd be sad if someone I haven't gotten the autograph to would die.

I'm glad to see you've got your priorities straight!

If you want to ~~hide in his bushes~~ ask him nicely for a signature, I'd be more than happy to go with you!

He's all the way over in England...and he's the only remaining member of the main cast of TNG that I want to get.

Fixed.

And what the hell is he doing all the way over in England? Damn red coats.

He comes over here all the time. He directed the UM band at a recent football game.
