"A contrarian in life, the writer Christopher Hitchens united the world in death, with friends, colleagues and even debating opponents joining to celebrate his fearless intellect, ready wit and diamantine prose after he died from cancer at the age of 62."

Link-O-Matic to full article

Once upon a time, in a lifetime far far away .... Christopher Hitchens was my hero. I loved watching his debates. He was brilliant, and he had a real talent for making people look stupid. Something I looked up to, at the time. He was as atheist as atheist could be, but was super Republican at the same time. An odd combination. He was one of the most brilliant philosophers in recent history. I still have a couple of his books.

Godspeed Chris. :thumbsup:

I found out about this through Twitter. :wall:

I have Salt Lake City set as the location for "trends" and thought it was odd Christopher's name was top of the list.
