Happy Birthday Robert!

RAH will be 100 years old tomorrow. Its unfortunate that, unlike Lazarus Long, he's not still with us.

A glass is drained, then flung into the fireplace, where it shatters.

Happy belated RAH! Hope they are having a good party for him down at that conference. Thank you for reaching out to, and inspiring, so many young minds!

Re: Happy Birthday Robert!

May I add my two cents?

To Robert Anson Heinlein: the only writer whose work enthralls me just as much as when I first started reading SF over forty years ago.

Re: Happy Birthday Robert!

I celebrated by buying lunch (there ain't no such thing as a free lunch, you know) and working extra at the local science-fiction bookstore. One of the books that I put on the shelf was Stranger in a Strange Land.

Happy birthday, Sir.
