Title: Farewell to a Legend.
Post by: sidzero on March 07, 2008, 12:03:01 AM

Famed godfather of geekdom, Gary Gygax, passed away this past Tuesday. He is well known as the creator of Dungeons and Dragons. I have a few good memories of playing the game, myself. Without D&D, the fantasy genre on the whole, and the entire RPG gaming genre, would be nowhere near as prevalent or interesting as it is today. His contribution stands on it's own. He shall be missed. Fair passing into the next life, Mr. Gygax.
