Hitchens is commemorated by Lady Atheist, Advocatus Atheist, Dead Logic, PZ Myers, Toby Young, David Frum, and the magazine he most recently worked for, Vanity Fair.

One of the one's Infodell that caught my atencion the other day was the "Dont Tan" thing ... something I have alwayz wondered about. Because I tan of course in the warmer month's here without even trying to ... I mean ... were in Texas : ) I had a buddy who would work doing roofing, and didnt hardly ever wear a shirt during work ... his skin was as dark as some folk's that was African American and he was from white Euro background. I try to of course avoid sunbathing, but cant help to go out in the day to do thing's or whatever. even wearing a t- shirt my arm's and face still get coloured quick, or leg's wearing short's, it's almost unavoidable. Then I know them folk's that are night type people (nocturnal lifestyle's, in the undergroung scene or whatever) who avoid all sunlight just too purposely stay pale. A friend (DeeAnn) had a beauty and tanning salon business, and the tanning bed's stayed booked with gal's lined up. In the summer if I lay out on the patio/ yard in short's and sandals only, I am alwayz under the shade tree though, and only out at the pool out front like that "after" the sun goes down.
