Title: Michael Crichton died Post by: Izret101 on November 10, 2008, 07:32:30 PM Meant to post this a couple days ago when i heard.
Apparently he died of cancer that he had been "hiding" or so the 5 second blurb i caught on the news said. Really sucks he was a great author. I was also pretty surprised i hadn't seen or heard anything else about it over the next few days. Maybe i was watching the wrong stations? Anyone else fans of his works? I own almost all of his books and have read about half of them. Great stuff.

That is quite sad to hear. Title: Re: Michael Crichton died Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on November 10, 2008, 07:56:13 PM Yeah I heard about this. Shitsux

Title: Re: Michael Crichton died Post by: Izret101 on November 11, 2008, 03:49:36 PM in memory of michael crichton i will be rereading the andromeda strain. I read an older version(printed in the 60s so maybe the first edition?) i'm curious if more recent editions are different.
