"As a freethinker and an old-style atheist, he had a need to discourse from time to time on lofty matters." (from The Village of Stepanchikovo by Fyodor Dostoyevsky)

Robert Sheckley (1928-2005)
The science fiction writer Robert Sheckley died this morning in a New York hospital. Lovers of the science fiction short story will mourn his death. He was one of the few SF writers who could make me laugh out loud. RIP.
