Stanizlaw Lem, 1921 - 2006

Zac's Blog o' Death returns today, this time to honor this man:
Polish science fiction author and favorite of mine Stanislaw Lem died today. He left behind an expansive body of work, and his legacy is assured. His works were among the most cerebrally witty, cunning, and outright bizarre I have ever read. My life has been thoroughly enriched as a result of this man, and I am thankful that he had what time on Earth that he did have.
