goodbye Christopher Hitchens

A great talent and an important voice these last 10 years since September 11th, we have to say goodbye to Christopher Hitchens. Whenever I've read anything of his, he's made me think and made me want to write.

Tribute from his friends here.

"Be brave, say what you believe... dare to stand alone."

the Toby Young piece in The Telegraph is a lovely read.
I adored Hitch 22 and read it twice before passing it on.
One would think, though, that such an intelligent man would note that his father's cause of death would also be his if he also smoked nonstop for decades. gosh CH.

intelligence never seems to do the job of common sense. Great people like The Dude will always have their stubbornness. He'll be missed by many
