BSEditor: With deep sadness I heard today of Arthur C. Clarks passing. AC was a good friend of Distant Suns. His first fan letter to me would lead to a fun and uplifting pen pal relationship and the eventual mention of Distant Suns in one of his books (Ghost of the Grand Banks). Besides his letters one of my prized positions is an autographed poster of 2001-A Space Odyssey. Something that is all the more meaningful now.
