Losing people
by Alex
The past few days have been really unfortunate — people who I know or who have played an important role in my life have passed on, including:
“Gargy Gygax”:http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/games/archives/2008/03/05/gary_gygax_cocreator_of_dd_dies_at_69.html – Creator not just of D&D but opener up of geekdom as a possibility or movement
“Joe Williams”:http://news.uchicago.edu/news.php?asset_id=1280 – the author of the best book on how to write ever
“Chris Kosmidis”:http://www.littler.com/people/index.cfm?event=getPerson&contactID=3326&office=406 – I used to work for Chris when he did computing stuff. His loss — especially at his young age — is tragic.
Rest in peace, each and every one.
