SIR ARTHUR C. CLARKE

We wish you Godspeed on your journey to other worlds. Thank you for so brightly imagining our great future. For daring us to believe that technology could rise to be viewed as "magic" and humbling us to remember that "man did not invent technology, rather technology invented man." You were an inspiration and mentor. You said, "if you are reasonably though not irrationally optimistic about the future you have a chance of creating a self-fulfilling prophecy." It was an adventure for Hazardous Media to travel to Sri Lanka on three occasions to visit you and accept your hospitality in that exotic land. From there we cybercast your images to far places and made some great documentary films. Thanks for the adventure Arthur. We all hope, as you often imagined, that you are journeying to the stars.
