Hi wife Diane Cline, also a respected scholar, died of cancer in 2023.
He was on FR, briefly, because someone tipped him off about one of my posts (that’s kinda mysterious), a real treat to argue with him. 😎 Not only is his acc’t nuked, attempts at listing his old posts yields a blank screen, probably at his request.
