And didn't he die a few months back?

As I understand (from reading Michael Moorcock's comments on this), early
D&D was very upfront about the sources it used - apparently they used to
cite Tolkien, Moorcock, Leiber, Vance, et al. in the guidebooks. Now - not
so much.

I never played myself, but surely there are some "D&D kids" here? My parents
were always suspicious of it, so it wasn't really an option for me. I got my
watered-down fantasy through Japanese videogames, thank you very much.
