Kurt Vonnegut
Kurt Vonnegut has shuffled off this mortal coil.
... He was a formative influence for me, literature-wise. Yup! That lets ya'll know I'm a baby boomer! Tail end for sure, but I just snicked in there. I don't think it's too off topic to mention it since most of my flist is SF oriented, and time and space travel was an important device to get across the mental trauma in Slaugherhouse 5, not to mention some of his earlier pieces.
I just need to acknowledge this - no need to reply.
