EDIT: This is a repeat from Moody Loner's diary.
I see at as relevant to DailyKos only because it's verified just how many D&D nerds are members of this site. . .
Dungeons & Dragons co-creator Dave Arneson is dead at 61. This follows the death of E. Gary Gygax in March 2008.
Here's the source:

Dave Arneson, the man who first created the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game alongside Gary Gygax, passed Tuesday night, his family announced via email.
H/T to Fark.com for breaking the breaking of the story. I'm just being honest about how I got word of it.
Really, not much else to say here, except maybe as a tribute we can fill the comments with geek talk. He died April 7 from cancer according to the e-mail sent by his family.
