Arthur Charlse Clarke. This man went on writing even in his late eighties, it is a fully utilized life, a creative life,a life which enlightened, illuminated millions. People like me who got inspiration from him, for his creative scientific literature and for humanistic outlook remains forever grateful that such a person existed in my time. I first read his book 'Glide path' which was not fiction but his experience with ALS in the 2nd WW. The second book was 'Childhood's end', that was a mind storm. The third book "Rendezvous with Rama " got me hooked forever. it is is not just imagination , it is the small details in the nooks and corners of sentences which carries deeper meaning. Today I am a better thinker and scientist because of his books, because of a great creative personality who only came to me through printed matters,yet he still seems so close, so personal to me. thank you ACC for being ACC.
