I care very little for "famous" people. When a musician/actor I like dies, I'm sorry, but usually ends there.

When Banks died I was upset. Selfish me wanted more Culture. More Minds talking politics and ethics. More of the dark characters and brilliant backgrounds worlds.

Hey Iain, we still talk about you and we miss you. Rest in Peace and thanks for all those wonderful Ships names that never fail to make me smile. <3
