I regret to announce the death in hospital today of Brian Micklethwait, the first Editorial Director of the Libertarian Alliance. He had been suffering from cancer. We first met in August 1982 and became good friends. If our friendship ended some time before the February of 2011, now is not the time for reflecting on such matters. I wish only to remember that we were once good friends, and to regret his passing.

A very sad day. And Brian was so chirpy when I last interacted with him on his blog back in March.
1982 too, I think we met, in Libertarian Alliance days. R.I.P. Brian.
