Default Arthur C. Clarke has died, age 90


this is sad news. I wrote to him almost two years ago and never got a
response. He may have been sick and stopped signing. Very sad
indeed.

Arthur C. Clarke was a recluse, and hardly sent autographs through the
mail.

I mailed a bookplate to Sri Lanka and he signed it, but that was back
in 2002. The bookplate now rests in my copy of The Collected Stories
of Arthur C. Clarke.


I had a success with him too, back around '98.

Yeah; I've heard both before. People I knew got successes and I wrote
to Sri Lanka as well... but nothing. Some got him and others didn't.
Maybe he was bi-polar!

Anyway, he was a talent with an extraordinary mind/imagination and
that will be missed.
