Scott and I have traded emails today about the death of Kurt Vonnegut, and I've discussed it on a couple forums online, so it's worth noting here as well.

So it goes.

For those of you who haven't had the pleasure of reading Vonnegut, you can get free PDFs of some of his books over at WOWIO:

• Breakfast of Champions
  
• The Sirens of Titan
  
• Cat's Cradle
  
• Player Piano
  
• Slaughter-House Five

My battered paperbacks are buried away in my storage unit, so I might take advantage of these myself this weekend.
