Sad News

I just found out that Ivan Sag has died of cancer at 63 (here).  Ivan did very important work in syntax and syntax-semantics interface issues. He was very prolific and a gifted linguist. Though my own views often failed to coincide with his, there is no doubt his work was of the highest quality. Sad news.

    Very sad news indeed.

    For those of you who are facebook friends with Barbara Partee: you may want to check out the links she has posted in memory of Ivan [and for those who aren't fb-friends with her - you may want to change that...]
