Sad to hear about Fred Pohl. He was high on my list of people I had hoped to meet. Anyone with even a passing interest in sf should read The Way the Future Was.

Majorly bummed. A dear friend passed away and the funeral is on my birthday!

That IS tough, but you could try to treat the funeral service as a celebration of the friend's life.

Mr. Tom Clancy!
Ironically, I thought fondly of my readings of this author's works yesterday when I saw a well-worn copy of Hunt for Red October just returned to our small town library's front desk:

Farewell to another powerful literary figure ~ http://abcnews.go.com/Entertai...ed/story?id=20444256

Peace.
