Sorry to hear of Stan's passing.  He was a thoughtful, passionate and
humane advocate of historical archaeology in a formative period, one of the
key individuals who made it a distinctive and healthy subdiscipline that
was more than a "handmaiden of history."  And above all, a truly sweet
guy.... we'll miss him.
