Goodnight, Mr. Rosewater

(Speaking at Isaac Asimov's funeral)

Isaac is in heaven now, that was the funniest thing I could have said to a crowd of Humanists. God Forbid, should I pass on sometime, may all of you say that Kurt is in Heaven too.

--Kurt Vonnegut (1922-2007)

So it goes.

When I was 16, I read all the novels of Kurt Vonnegut. It was exactly the right and wrong time
