Per David Drakes newsletter...(quoted)
'My friend Jim Baen passed away peacefully and with dignity at 5 pm yesterday, June 28, 2006.
Dave Drake'
Well, it was always on the cards, but you know, I was hoping for a miracle. Not expecting, but hoping. Drat. How come I got one and he didn't? If there is an Almighty, I'm going to have some serious words to Him about His allocation of miracles, I don't think He does a very fair job of it at all.
Bye Jim. Thanks for the books.

Anonymous commenters - please add a signature (doesn't have to be your real name) on each post of yours. Anne O'Namus, Norm D. Ploom, Angry from Kent, Demosthenes, or even your real initials, it doesn't matter.
Commenters are expected to be polite to each other, but the same standard doesn't apply to comments regarding me.
Australian commenters are very very strongly advised to publish anonymously. Sydney alone has more defamation actions than the entire USA and UK. Nearly double that of the UK in fact.
As Google does not reliably inform me that a comment has been posted, and I have no control over first publication, I assert that all comments are innocently disseminated under the NSW DEFAMATION ACT 2005 - SECT 32 and similar acts.
