My sentiments entirely.  And add, to the above, Jim's determination 
to remain an activist.  Few in academy today can approximate his 
accomplishments.  I'll really miss Jim's voice.  I should have liked 
him to live forever in the pink of health, always up for the good 
fight (in politics as well as scholarship).
