Michael Crichton has died

Dude, I am So crushed about this...

He was one of my favorite authors.

I honestly am shocked by the news that he's passed. I remember reading Jurassic Park (after seeing the movie) and being blown away.

Y'know, he never got to see the end of his TV series (E.R.) air.

40 year old women in airports across the nation mourn this loss.

You've never read a single one of his books have you? Jurassic Park and The Lost World were amazing. They're two of my favourite books

It wasn't a insult!

I think he did a great job of exploring the issues of
morality and ethics as the frontiers of science and technology
advance.

My bad, I thought you were comparing him to the average book a 40-year-old woman would read. Y'know like those sappy romantic novels with shirtless dudes on the cover.

Wow, I was very shocked and sad to hear this news earlier today. Jurassic Park and The Lost World are such excellent books and two of my absolute favorites. I've loved all things Jurassic Park since I was a kid and still do to this day. I've also read several of his other books- he really was an amazing writer. Cancer really sucks. RIP, Michael.

However you meant it, is this really necessary?

Apparently, someone's trying too hard to be controversial.
