A very sad loss

ABC radio personality Alan Saunders dies

What sad news.  Alan Saunders has done a great job for years and years at Radio National, covering everything from design and architecture, culinary pursuits, to philosophy, and probably some other topics I have now forgotten about.  His style was relaxed and knowledgeable, but he was engaging and accessible because you never felt he was assuming too much knowledge of his audience.  And he just always seemed a self-effacing, nice man.  I often forgot to deliberately tune in to his shows, but if I caught one by accident, I was nearly always glad that I had heard it.
