Ellison always brought the bantz. He'll be missed, if not for his work, for his persona.

I have a sinking feeling that Geney Boy is going to keel over any day now. Pynch, Tortilla, and Meme Wolfe aren't long for this world, and once they're gone, there will be a huge fucking hole in the world of literature. The 21st century is already shaping up to be nothing but mostly shit, with memes like Foer, Frazen, Chabon, and Gaiman apparently at the 'forefront' of literature. Let's hope Murakami sticks around for a while.
