I heard this on the radio as I woke up - Vonnegut was my addiction when I was in 7th grade and started "reading" books a bit above my peers. Scouring the stacks at the Worcester Public Library gave me such pleasure when I'd discover another book of his had been returned. I always felt like I held some guilty secret discovering the humor and humanity and thoughts of a man with much on his mind.

Thanks for the links, Fuse. Feels like the passing of a generation.

To be missed.

I don't think you'll mind if I link to my post on the man. What a writer he was.
