Why No Gary Gygax Memorial Yesterday?

Simple.

Because I remember him  and yes Dave Arneson  too every time I open a gaming book.


As the Havamal (Stanza 77)

Cattle die, kindred die, 
Everybody  is mortal: 
But I know one thing that never dies, 
The glory of the great deed.

and thus as long as polyhedral dice  rattle on tables, they are with us.
