    For those short of time: Religion is mysticism and Hitler was an altruist. Who knew?

    Subtle as ever.

    Hitch - neither a Communist nor a Catholic - finds the founding novels of Objectivism 'transcendentally awful'.

    My subconscious is annoying. It's got a mind of its own.

        He has a point tho', it takes a very strange pair of eyes to look around our world and conclude that what we need is for people to act with more self-interest, that what we are suffering from is a surfeit of altruism.

        Euan Sutherland, who quit as chief executive of the Co-operative Group after only 10 months in the job amid a high-profile row over his remuneration package, is to receive a £1m payoff. The size of the sum, the equivalent of 12 months' basic salary, has angered some Co-op members at a time when the organisation is looking to make up to 6,000 employees redundant.
