RIP, Steve Jobs.
I went to the same high school as the Steves, Jobs and Woz. Not at the same time, obviously, but their names were painted on the Hall of Fame in the gym, and it's one of those odd points of identity I carry around in my head, even though I have never been very big on Apples (except maybe in junior high school when that's what the computer club had and thus what I played tons of The Oregon Trail on). So just... wow. And Steve Jobs was 15 years younger than my elder parent, who fortunately has none of the organ problems he had, but still. Sobering.
