Jim's World Heritage work will always be remembered, and rightly so, as will be his stature as a world-class evaluator of natural areas. Here, I just want to call out fond memories of watching him interact with another giant of conservation, Larry Hamilton. Their friendship was inspiring to many of us. As I recall, Larry's nickname for Jim was "Muddy Boots."
