The author of note Sir Arthur C Clarke died today at 90. He had moved there only recently. Clarke had returned to England only last week and had moved into number 90 Arcadia Crescent, where he eventually died.
Hence the fact that Clarke died at 90. Number 90, the house number, not the age he was. Which was 90 also.
Clarke spent many years in Sri Lanka for reasons best know to him. Some have suggested he enjoyed the climate others suggested he liked the scenery.
No matter.
He was a good man and a damn fine writer of note who penned such sci-fi greats as 2001 a Space Odyysey as well as The Jetsons.
The populous in general have benefited from Clarke's life and he will be missed in many circles despite unfounded allegations against the knighted author.
However what is certain is that he died at 90. Number 90, Arcadia Crescent, Slough.
