RIP Ray....

your scifi craft will entertain people long after today.

my favorite is the short story “A Sound of Thunder” which eloquently discribes the Grandfather Paradox...discribed also as the Butterfly Effect because of the cause and effect, the caused being stepping on a butterfly in the past....

Great Stuff Ray.....

Mine as well. And another great story messed up by a Hollywood movie.

I liked that one as well and remember it although I didn’t recall who wrote it.

I think one of my favorite short stories that he wrote was *The Pedestrian*.
