Macboy’s Lowercase L blog has been cooking up a storm over the past year with mentions in newspapers, magazines, websites and submissions from around the world. I think this could be one of his best yet—the tombstone of the first person to die during development of nuclear weapons for the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos, New Mexico. Oh, the indignity of it all. Killed by an experiment gone awry. Misidentified for perpetuity by a sloppy tombstone engraver.
