A bit late in posting this, but a fortnight ago on March 4th, the creator of the Dungeons and Dragons died. He was aged 69.

It's quite possible to believe that without his creation, a whole genre of games (Computer and pen and paper) and even novels would not be as popular as they are today.

This is a link to a nice bio from Wired magazine:

Very sad.

Rich
