Great sadness. Dave Arneson, one of the co-creators (along with Gary Gygax) of Dungeons and Dragons, and therefore one of the biggest influences on popular culture over the past thirty years and partly responsible for a lot of the things we all think of as fun, has passed away at the age of 61. I'll have a more complete obit as soon as I can find one. Thanks to
muskrat_john for the confirmation.

(Take that as you may LOL)
