In other news, I was very saddened to hear about Gary Gygax's passing 
today. At the con I made a joke about him coming back as "Gygax the Lich 
King" which doesn't seem so funny now. I was a DM back when AD&D came 
out in 1978, before moving on to all things Traveller.

I heard about it first through our clubs Yahoo group and didn't get a 
whole lot of work done after that. I spent my 40 min drive home 
wondering if NPR was going to do a story about Gary. Just as I pulled 
onto my street the story began. " Imagine a mournful horn echoing across 
thousands of fantasy worlds: E. Gary Gygax, the co-creator of the 
role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons, died Wednesday morning. He was 69."

I burst out crying,  pulled into my driveway, and had one of those 
"driveway moments".
