For those wondering Eric Meyer was one of the early advocates of modern web design techniques and CSS. He's also an established author and international speaker.
Tragically his daughter passed away today. You can read some of Eric's heartbreaking writings about it here: http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/category/personal/cancer/
He's also quite actively tweeting before and after the passing, some of the tweets bringing tears to my eyes: https://twitter.com/meyerweb
