  1. I never thought of Gygax as old. Especially since the time at one of the early Dragon Cons, when I got to attend a room party he was hosting (I was on staff). Booze and mahjong. And booze. Those were the days!

  2. Thanks for posting this up. Gary will be missed.

  3. He missed his saving throw.

  4. Did he drop any good loot?
