FFFFFFFFFF.
That's... sad.
I thought that he hadn't lived to see his creations, though. I thought he'd passed on many years ago? I wonder who I'm thinking of.
But still, this is sad. However I'm so glad for the math that he gave us. Without it, seriously, our lives would be so freaking dull. So many games rely upon artwork that is essentially fractal in nature. Trees, random coastlines... oh man. 
*raises a toast*
I wonder if he knew about the Mandelbulbs?
Please read my FEAR/Portal/HalfLife Fan Fiction!
Repurposed
Mandelbear is sad
Goodbye, I guess.

I just watched the trip link. And I'd like an apology, because now there's all this brain all over my ceiling, and who is going to clean that up!!! Seriously, why would any<thud>.

Is this a suitable tribute? RIP, you've made mathematicians and many college students very happy. And who can say that?
