I wonder how many games Larry pre-ordered that he'll never get to play now?
He will be missed around here. I didn't agree with a lot of his views on the world, and I respected him as an avid and passionate gamer.
At least a dozen would be my guess. Larry was also a big fan of the Advanced Tobruk System and pre-ordered most games from Critical Hits.
Both Mike B. and Ray T. are aware of his passing (and I would count them among his friends) so I would expect them to send the money back to Larry's widow in due time.
Larry and I exchanged a dozen emails these past few years and I was always surprised how optimistic he was about his pre-orderrs. He will be missed.
Just heard today about Larry's sad demise, his support of APL will be missed as will his frequent post on PGHQ. RIP
