R.I.P. A.C.C.

It is a sad day for Science Fiction. Sir Arthur C. Clarke, author of 2001: A Space Odyssey among others, has passed away at the age of 90.

Sir Arthur Charles Clarke
(1917-2008)

"Life is just one big banana. Science fiction allows us all to peel open the reality and discover the yellow truth inside."

"Somewhere in me is a curiosity sensor. I want to know what's over the next hill. You know, people can live longer without food than without information. Without information, you'd go crazy."
