Jim Baen in hospital

Dar Kush: Bad News-Supereditor Jim Baen in hospital

I just heard that Jim Baen, one of the most influential editors inthe science fiction field, had a stroke, and has been in a coma for the last twelve hours. No more information at this time, but those of us who consider ourselves friends, or have admired the vast contribution he has made to the field, well…if you believe in prayer, this would be a good time.

This is awful news. Baen has made an enormous contribution to science fiction.
