I know most of us here are fans of Heinlein, and I just found out that his
widow, Virginia Heinlein, passed away this morning.

May they enjoy travelling in Elephants together.

Indeed. I shall be interested to see any obituaries or tributes that come out,
because there was a certain sector of fandom who held "Ginny" responsible for
all Heinlein's supposed sins, right back to the days of Starship Troopers.
Knowing virtually nothing about their relationship, I couldn't even dare to
venture an opinion, even if I was so inclined, but I shall be intrigued to see
what everyone else has to say...

Phil, a Heinlein fan from way back...
