I am sad that Geoffrey Nunberg has just died. We've talked about him a lot here. I always loved hearing him on NPR's Fresh Air

Sad. I would have thought Jim would have posted about it here.

I thought the same thing, Geoff. I guess he is too busy these days. I do miss him.

It is sad, but then we live in sad times. I have an early book of his called The Linguistics of Punctuation; I have the went atomic book, too.

Wow, Z, it is good seeing you here. As you can see, we have slowed down considerable - but we are still mighty.
