Maria Just curious Are you from this planet? On September 22, 1996 around 3:00PM, Seymour Cray was merging onto southbound I-25 from North Academy Boulevard in Colorado. A Chevrolet Camaro was following behind him. Both cars merged into the left lane, but the Camaro tried to switch into the left lane and almost hit a Pontiac Grand Prix in the left lane. The Grand Prix swerved off the road onto the shoulder then back onto the road and hit the Camaro. The Camaro spun onto the medium, but the Grand Prix swerved more and rammed the left-rear door of Cray's Cherokee. The Cherokee spun counter-clockwise before rolling three times and coming to a halt in the middle of the lane. Cray suffered a broken neck, broken ribs, and severe head injuries. Cray was taken in an ambulance to Penrose Hospital where he received surgery to relieve brain swelling. Cray remained in critical and unstable condition until October 5th when Seymour Cray was pronounced dead at 2:53AM. By his thirties, Cray had been established as a genius in designing fast scientific computers. Seymour Cray's name will forever be synonymous with high performance computing. ei.cs.vt.edu
