I am very sad, at the same time very happy. What a lucky thing it is to be missed from the world once you are gone. I've only ever read "Childhood's End", but Arthur C. Clark has got to be one of the best classic sci-fi writers.

Good for you for standing up for a non-religious funeral, A.C.C.

The world will miss you.
