Paleonet: Art Boucot

[Jere LIPPS]

Thank you, Sally, for this sad news.  Art was unique among paleontologists
in many ways.  He was totally dedicated to the field and had good opinions
on where it should go and how to do that, as well as making significant
scientific contributions in our journals (prolific, he was).  He will be
missed.
