    Poor bugger - The cause of death, she said, was idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a progressive and a fatal scarring of the lungs.

      I loved his book, "Jaws." His other stuff never really caught on with me, except for "The Deep." That was decent. He had a bunch of other stuff that turned into made for TV movies.

      But it was all about "Jaws" man. A massive sensation.

            That's a shame. RIP

            Must admit, never read his books. Jaws though was inspirational.

              Didn't he die a day or 2 ago? Hardly news, let him RIP.

              BTW, he was also a speechwriter for LBJ when he was president, a little trivia.

                I recall, but forgot, hearing something like that about him years ago. I also recall Bill Moyers was a speech-writer for LBJ as well.

                  that's just sad to hear. Jaws has fascinated most in our generation

                                  hundreds of thousands of sharks were killed because of his book and the movie
