I had the pleasure of spending some time with Christopher Hitchens at his home. I was somewhat of an interloper, my only connection being that his wife and I were childhood friends. Charlie Rose asked how Christopher should be described. I would say he was a munch. And one of his best traits was loyalty to his friends, and integrity within himself. I keep his book "Letters to a Young Contrarian" at work -- it is one of my best references when I find myself mentoring junior colleagues. I wish I had spent more time with him.
