Got a bit of bad news today - Arthur C. Clarke has died. I was never much of a fan of Isaac Asimov, but Clarke really spoke to me as a young, geeky kid. He had a terrific imagination and a gift for storytelling. He’s also the source of one of my all-time favorite quotes on technology (one of his Three Laws):

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

Thanks, Sir Arthur, and rest in peace.
