I was out of town and away from email for awhile, so when I got back and saw the notice about Bookchin’s death it hit me me pretty hard. I’ve always been an admirer of Bookchin. Even when I disagreed with him on finer points I’ve felt a broad sympathy for his ideas, which evolved over time.

Yeah, I didn’t agree with him on a lot of things, but I always
admired his principles & spirit.

I was surprised, bordering on skeptical, to learn that he was 85 when
he died. Shortly after I started LBO, I spoke with him on the phone,
and he sounded like he was 106. And that was almost 20 years ago.
