Thanks for posting - I read about 30-40 of his books, I found he really expressed his views very well in his short stories.

I always liked him and subscribed to both SF magazines he published.

I never knew that about the cause of death. That's really messed up. He could have gone on to the like people for years to come. But I will say that he is one of the most prolific, if not the most prolific science fiction writer out there.
