Thank you, Karen, I almost missed that and oh what a shame it would have been. That passage about being in love with love, it made my heart leap for joy. No matter what religion Bradbury may have thought he professed, if he was so in love with love then how could he have not known the God who is Love? Indeed better than some people who read the Bible and yet somehow never find love there at all. I have always loved Bradbury and reading Jimmy's tribute makes me want to have a Bradbury summer and to go dig up my copy of The Martian Chronicles and Something Wicked This Way Comes and all my favorites.

Ray Bradbury let me know it was ok to have a preposterous imagination.
