Re: Ray Bradbury - RIP
Very sad. The Illustrated Man is one of my favorite stories.

Another of the great SF writers gone. Grew up on his works, he will be greatly missed

Re: Ray Bradbury - RIP
Just last night I read a great one page piece by him. He tells how he became interested in science fiction as a 7 or 8 year old , reading Buck Rogers and "Amazing Stories" in 1928 ! The title was 'Take me Home'
Your home now ,
rest in peace Ray
The piece is in the June 4 The New Yorker

Re: Ray Bradbury - RIP
I read everything he wrote when I was a kid. His stories made me love to read. His imagination and humanity were unique. He could also scare the pants off you (read the short story "Skeleton") I think Stephen King borrowed from "The Emissary" and "The Small Assassin" when he wrote Pet Semetary.
Anyway, a great mind and a true humanitarian.

I remember loving "Dandelion Wine" when I was a kid.
