Mr. Hitchens was the most compelling wit I have ever known. I had the pleasure of spending a few minutes with him in a cab in Las Vegas. Naturally we got into a debate — he was adamant and dismissive. I also saw him briefly once on a plane. I am not sure I ever saw him without a drink in his hand. He was a fine man and I can only aspire and never achieve his command of our language.
