At the con I made a joke about him coming back as "Gygax the Lich King" which doesn't seem so funny now. I was a DM back when AD&D came out in 1978, before moving on to all things Traveller. I heard about it first through our clubs Yahoo group and didn't get a whole lot of work done after that. I spent my 40 min drive home wondering if NPR was going to do a story about Gary. Just as I pulled onto my street the story began. " Imagine a mournful horn echoing across thousands of fantasy worlds: E. Gary Gygax, the co-creator of the role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons, died Wednesday morning. He was 69." I burst out crying, pulled into my driveway, and had one of those "driveway moments". http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=87901434
