I read a good Wired article, an interview with Arthur C. Clarke on the 25th
anniversary of 2001. He said he wanted his epitaph to be this:
"He never grew up; but he never stopped growing."
That sounds like a good life to me!
The full interview at:

makes a VERY interesting read, especially his comments on "reality"...
Also, to make this slightly on-topic, thanks to all who responded on my
Northstar keyboard problem. I am in the middle of selling my house and
buying a new one, and the last couple of storms up here in central
Massachusetts flooded my basement, so I have been cleaning up from that. I
will try things out, and let you all know what's up...
