Instead of worthless, drug-addicted movie "stars" we see man whose death actually can be mourned without shame. Clarke was a worthy human being, a genius at science and the writing of science fiction and an inspiration for good movies. Although your accompanying animosity makes it terribly difficult to agree... yes, Clarke was a giant... (and one of those from whom I'd most like to hear what he sees now...) Yes, and that certainly was a touching eulogy by Rich, wasn't it? I doubt Clarke would've approved. If only we could get Rich to move to Sri Lanka in homage to him. |
