Arthur C Clarke no longer is amongst us...

Hey folks, Harry here... Today's a sad day - we lost Anthony Minghella earlier today - and now we've lost one of the most brilliant minds in science fiction, Arthur C Clarke. For many of us - he'll be the man that worked with Kubrick in creating the science fiction Masterpiece... 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY - but for fans of the written word he was so much more. He was one of the true masters - read his RENDEZVOUS WITH RAMA or CHILDHOOD'S END. Both titles have been developed for features, but as of yet - have not be cracked. They are incredible works that hopefully will be brought to life. He moved to Sri Lanka in the mid-1950s where he spent the rest of his life. He died their today at the age of 90. He leaves us with over 100 books that challenge our understanding of the universe. This is a sad day.
