The table at the ultimate dinner party now has one less place setting.
"My own view is that this planet is used as a penal colony, lunatic asylum and dumping ground by a superior civilisation, to get rid of the undesirable and unfit. I can't prove it, but you can't disprove it either."
"What is your idea of earthly happiness? To be vindicated in my own lifetime."

Unfortunately, I only knew of Christopher Hitchens by name. The little that I knew of his views from reading and what few interviews and soundbites I had heard of him, I still respected him immensely. I guess that's a good thing to say about someone. I plan to read more of his works and debates after hearing so much about him these past few days, even if its a few days too late.
Agree with you 100% on Hitch who I eulogized too (quoting Tom McIntyre as well).
I disagreed as you did on some of his positions (hell, so do Tom and I), but he was our most valuable contrarian. I will lift a glass for him tonight...
