Arthur C Clarke passed beyond the rim

Just heard it on the radio, RIP great genius, author and inventor.

Who? Well, this british / american bloke reached the venerable age of level 90, and was the inventor of amongst other things the communication satellite.

His works as a writer include `the Sentinel`, better known by it`s movie version, Kubrick`s 2001 A Space Odyssey.

He's like .. the genius of this age ... He's the one that came up with the idea of Satellites, and a million other things.

Fixed that for ya. :D

Kidding. Must be a weird feeling to know that even after you've shuffled from the mortal coil, you'll still be remembered for everything you've done. Godspeed.
HB: Waste exactly four hours on this tomfoolery.

If you are cold, it will warm you.
If you are too heated, it will cool you.
If you are depressed, it will cheer you.
If you are excited, it will calm you.
NOW SIT DOWN AND DRINK YOUR GODDAMN TEA!

Such a shame, but he'll live on forever...or as long as people keep reading anyway.
I know I won't forget him.
