Poetic Obituaries: [Roland D.] Paine was a lifetime member

of the National Association of Science Writers. An avid reader of American history and politics, he also enjoyed poetry, humor and satire. Mark Twain and W.H. Auden were among his favorite writers. He loved opera and classical music, hiking with friends, birding and sailing his boat on the Chesapeake.

from The Washington Post: Roland D. Paine, 84; Science Writer And Government Information Chief
