RIP: Michael Crichton (1942-2008)

One of my favorite authors, Michael Crichton has passed away today at the age of 66. The science-fiction writer of instant classics lost his fight with cancer this morning.

Almost 4 years to the week after the Cedar file raged through San Diego Country, the Witch Creek fire found its way from Ramona into Rancho Bernardo, Rancho Santa Fe, Escondido, Poway.
