If you are a fan of Terry Pratchett and you missed the news - he has been diagnosed with a rare form of early onset Alzheimer's.

Frankly, I would prefer it if people kept things cheerful, because I think there's time for at least a few more books yet :o)" he wrote in his message. "I know it's a very human thing to say 'Is there anything I can do,' but in this case I would only entertain offers from very high-end experts in brain chemistry.

Good to see he has his humor intact.
