Arthur C. Clarke – The Final Odyssey
March 19th, 2008
Arthur C. Clarke died today at his home in Sri Lanka aged 90. A gifted visionary, he believed that “At the present rate of progress, it is almost impossible to imagine any technical feat that cannot be achieved – if it can be achieved at all – within the next few hundred years.”
For those who haven’t read it yet, my favourite Clarke has to be Childhood’s End. Read it.
