I don't think it's been mentioned here yet. Possibly some of you haven't heard, and I know there are many fans. Mary Hansen, vocalist/guitarist with Stereolab since 1992, was killed on Wednesday. It's still a little unclear exactly what happened. She was cycling in London. Some reports say a truck was involved. Others, a car. Funeral next week, back in Australia.
