Let's make this birthday one to remember.

78 years old (Born on January 10, 1947)

Happy birthday to the legendary George Alec Effinger! May your day be filled with more joy than a gravity-defying adventure, and fewer mishaps than Marîd Audran's escapades in "When Gravity Fails." Your brilliant imagination has given us worlds where entropy makes sense—well, sort of—and characters who linger long after we've closed the book.

From exploring existential chaos in "What Entropy Means to Me" to captivating readers with Felicia’s unforgettable journey, you've consistently amazed us. Here's hoping this year brings you as much success and excitement as your novels have brought laughter and wonder into our lives. Cheers!
