I was a little worried about how they were going to handle it.. The immediate reaction to his death me wonder if the whole event was going to become some sort of massive tribute to Hitchens. I greatly admired him, but it wasn't the only reason I bought tickets. But I think they ended up doing a great job, very tastefully done and not "hammed up" in the least. I particularly liked Lawrence Krauss' tribute.

Pretty awesome. Thanks for linking.
Pakistan’s foreign Ministry spokesperson said that “anyone who describes Islam as a religion as intolerant encourages violence.” Remember folks: Islam is the religion of peace, and if you don't agree, WE'LL KILL YOU.
