Stanley Kubrick just SPINNED on his grave right now, 100 rotations per second. And Arthur C Clark just spinned on his... bed, he's not dead yet, at least I don't think so. Did he die? Last I knew of him, he was incredibly old but alive.

Wee, post 2022... the year that... uh... oh, I got it! the year I'll get to be 40!
That is, if I'm still alive by then...
