Has passed away.  My favorite vampire, and Sith Lord.

93 is pretty good, but I will miss him.  :'(

If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

I was always 50/50 on Lee.  Not really sure why.   Hoopz sent me this article and I can see now my opinion was clearly wrong.  This dude led an amazing life.

My favorite is #6 about his work in WWII -
6) At some point during the war he moved from the LRDP to Winston Churchill’s even more elite Special Operations Executive, whose missions are literally still classified, but involved “conducting espionage, sabotage and reconnaissance in occupied Europe against the Axis powers.” The SOE was more informally called — and I can’t believe this somehow hasn’t been made into a movie yet — The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.
