Bradbury and Disney seem to have been very similar in their outlooks on life and the world. I think I would call them "nostalgic futurists," one foot on the moon and one foot on Main Street. It's an interesting combination of attitudes and interests, but one that we could use more of, in my opinion. I did not know Bradbury personally as you did, but I feel the loss of him tremendously.
In case you missed it, there was a superb op-ed piece in the New York Times,"Uncle Ray's Dystopia," that is well worth a read . . . http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/08/opinion/uncle-rays-dystopia.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all
