_Fred Pohl is still alive. Philip Jose Farmer is too, but he came a few years later._Just realized that Jack Vance is still alive too.

I knew Vance was dead, but I was just thinking about him today. Specifically I was wondering if those two groups of fans who were arguing over whether it was spelt Wankh or Wannek had stopped yet.

I was looking at this list of the oldest living sci-fi and fantasy writers. None of the golden age writers I care about are around, but it's nice to know Ursula K. Le Guin, Gene Wolfe, and Ben Bova are still kicking. Hopefully I didn't just jinx their longevity.

Interesting. Earl Hamner, Jr. Nicholas Moseley.

Is the miniseries worth tracking down? I was interested but didn't have time that week.
