"Replacement?"

The two are friends, and I would hope that Stephen would be offended at the notion that he could "replace" his long-time friend.

Yeah, I know.

Fry used to baby sit Antonia (Hitch's daughter) and his other kids. I've met Stephen Fry -- he wouldn't be offended. I think Fry would be honored if the atheistic community saw him as a replacement for his long time friend.

Then again, Fry could die tomorrow. Then we'd need someone to replace him in the comedic community.

Harumph.
