<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Harold Ramis, famous for his films such as "Ghostbusters," "Caddyshack," "Groundhog Day," and "Animal House," died today at age 69 after a battle with an <span>autoimmune disease.</span></span>

<span style="line-height: 1.5em;"><span>While Ramis was a director, producer, and screeenwriter, his most memorable role as an actor was </span>as Egon Spengler in "Ghostbusters."</span>

<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">And given that the tech world leads, he probably would have been a billionaire. </span>

<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Unlike Venkman (Bill Murray), the mouth, and Ray (Dan Aykroyd), the dweeb, Spengler was the most brilliant guy on the unit, having engineered their incredible ghostbusting equipment.</span>

<span style="line-height: 1.5em;">He was also a futurist with extremely quirky hobbies. </span>
