He was into making things, small scale engineering and electronics. As part of the hobby/lifestyle he lived communally in a converted warehouse.
He had gone to sleep and left a tin of strong glue open. Overnight he asphyxiated.
The details are a little second hand but it was recorded as mis-adventure.
And as it happens I'm off to the history of computing museum today.

Ouch. Shit luck. By 'accident' do you mean a car crash or some non-traffic kind of accident?
I think we have to do another one of those, although, while I'm happy to tag along as a non-maths geek, I'd feel a fraud for organising one. Perhaps Object could be persuaded to come out of retirement briefly.
