Michael Crichton died of cancer today. Crichton wrote Jurassic Park, Andromeda Strain, Timeline, among others, and created the show ER. Crichton obtained his MD at Harvard, lectured on anthropology and biology- but I've already devoted a blog to his multiple titles and accomplishments. Crichton was also an unabashed supporter of Bush and refused to accept the notion of Global warming. He also didn't believe secondhand smoke was harmful. Though I don't agree with him on the former point and don't know much about smoke, you have to respect him for standing up for his beliefs. Conservatism and fiction writing rarely co-exist, if you think about it.
I was really hoping for Jurassic Park 4.
