A sad headline in today's Los Angeles Times.
http://www.latimes.com/
"Ray Bradbury lived in his 1937 Cheviot Hills home for more than 50 years. After the author of "Fahrenheit 451" died in 2012 the house was readied for sale."

"The home was filled with original details, such as built-in bookcases, that surrounded Bradbury for much of his life.
The next owner could be proud to live with the echo of Bradbury, the beloved science fiction writer who advised both Walt Disney and NASA."
Or not.
The home which was purchased for $1.76 million dollars is being torn down.
A permit for demolition was issued Dec. 30th."
