This one hurts. He's written some of my favorite books, and inspired me as a kid in so many ways.

He deserved better than this.

True, but 88 years is by all accounts a damn good run.

I remember reading OMNI Magazine as a wee tyke. I was too young to tell apart the science from the science fiction, but it was inspiring all the same.
