MIchael Crichton Tribute

Michael Crichton was one of the most influential literary figures in my life. I first read the "Andromeda Strain" in 1969 or '70 and was blown away. I read "The Terminal Man", "The Great Train Robbery", "Eaters of the Dead" (not a horror story), "Congo", "Sphere", "Timeline" and "State of Fear" and his non-fiction book "Travels". I watched his movies "The Rising Sun", "Jurassic Park", "Disclosure", "Congo", "Timeline". "Twister", "Westworld", and for a few years was a fan of "ER". He was an author, film producer, medical doctor (graduated Harvard Medical School) [had graduated summa cum laude from Harvard for his undergraduate years], he did post doctoral work at the Joans Salk Institute of Biological Studies. Here's tribute to an accomplished man. RIP
