Leslie Charteris would've turned 100 a week or so ago. I never realized how close in age he & Fleming were.

Happy Birthday to one of the best fictional writers in the 20th century... Be Easy.

He smiled at her reaction. 'There's an Indian called Professor Bhose, who's written a treatise on the nervous system of flowers. He measured their reaction to pain. He even recorded the scream of a rose being picked. It must be one of the most heart-rending sounds in the world. -Moonraker |

One more year before the century mark, a true test of a person's legacy. Congrats and happy birthday Ian, wherever you are.
