I awake this morning to the sad news of the passing of Bob Carter.
I never met Bob, but we exchanged emails from time to time, particularly when I was providing editorial input to his paper on sea-level rise, which I still rate as one of the best things GWPF has published. He had a very sharp mind, but was great fun to work with. His strength of character in the face of years of personal attacks is an example to us all.
Steve McIntyre and Anthony Watts both have more personal recollections.
