Arthur C. Clarke has died at age 90

At least he made it past 2001.

When 2001 ended, I noted that the decade was shaping up to be a Kubrick decade. Unfortunately, nobody was prepared for it to resemble a mix of A Clockwork Orange and Full Metal Jacket.

What does that make the next decade? The Romero/Miller Decade?

Sure, if the Miller film is Lorenzo's Oil and the Romero film is Knightriders.

Sad, but inevitable. He, Asimov, and Heinlein were the big three writers that got me into SF as a kid.
