# She was (and that's a lovely pic, BTW)
And another one of the 'Rock Star Dies Age 27' brigade:

Robert Johnson (who started it all)
Jimi Hendrix
Jim Morrison
Kurt Cobain

All died aged 27. I'm sure there's a mathematical reason for it, but it's still a wonderfully weird fact.

I should point out Robert Rankin was the bringer of this to my attention in "The Brightonomicon".

# 27=3^3
3 cubed, 3x3x3, is 27. That means it's of cosmic significance or something. Or was that only back in the '60s?
