Pioneer passing

[elderlight]

Apparently Gary Gygax has died. I was mildly shocked by this until I realised that I had no idea how old he was; he was in fact nearly seventy and had been suffering various health problems for a number of years. Time marches on I guess, and it certainly can't be said that he didn't leave a legacy behind...
