Dungeons and Dragons co-creator dead at 69

This story is getting less ink than I would expect. I'm a frequenter of many-a geeky site on the interwebs and I've only seen mention a couple of times.

As is being reported by the Associated Press, Gary Gygax, co-creator of the role playing game Dungeons and Dragons, passed away yesterday at the age of 69.

I don't know about you guys, but I've been known to throw the dice around every now and again. Been in quite a few big campaigns, actually. So lets have a moment of silence and remember the, so far, 34 years of crowding around the table with enough chips and soda to kill a yak in order to live out those fantasies only D&D could provide.

Thanks Gygax. You'll be missed.
