    Floyd sadly died at a fairly young age (65), of a degenerative brain disorder.

      65 isn't bad. Maybe we can also be so lucky as to invent something cool and then leave.

        I'm guessing you aren't 64, like I am.

        He had been forced to retire six years earlier due to behavioral effects of the disease. It was very unpleasant, I understand.
