The Stainless Steel Rat was one of my favorites growing up. Sad to see him die.

I ate SF for years, Analog was the best, subscribed until Campbell died. I read so much that I had to read the first couple of chapters to see if I had read it before.

...Esperanto is also finally dead.

Not quite. Shatner's Incubus will continue to pop up here and there.
