I think only three (Pei, Day and Fowler). It just seems like more.

I had him on the master list, but the game had to end eventually for sanity's sake. Otherwise, we'd still be playing since it is (virtually) an endless list.

I love when people this old die, and the obit goes out of its way to say they do not have a cause of death.
He died because he was 102.

To be fair, my games do not consist of lists of people who are so old people don't know they're still alive.
