Arthur C. Clark
March 19th, 2008 by PotatoThe news is reporting that Arthur C. Clark died today. Which reminds me: a few years ago there was a sale on his massive short story collection at Chapters. I was using it as bed-time reading for a while, but had to stop: not because I wasn’t finding the stories interesting or because some of them were repetitive, but because the book was freaking huge and it was a pain in the ass (well, wrist) to hold it up in the awkward angles generated by bedtime reading. So I set it aside, meaning to read it that summer… but I haven’t seen it since. Did I loan it to anyone, or does anyone know which book I’m talking about and want to loan it to me so I can finish what I started?
