What about the newest guy? Reminds me of Jon Pertwee, minus the fluff heads.

Red hair, like atheism, is a difference without a distinction. Not, on the other hand is it axiomatically, the sign of a great mind. If Tyson is, it's of little concern, unless one is in it for gossip. Then it becomes compelling. Was it the writer, Truman Capote who said, "there are three great things in the world, religion, science, and gossip." As for me, I am often quite envious of people who are atheists, not for the brilliance of their thoughts, but for the cocksure, self-confidence, and their apparent ability to be matter of fact in how they deal with the great turbulence of the Human Condition. By the way,.this is the first time I have use the phrase, cocksure, in a sentence. Anyway,.it's something.I admire, unlike when they.chose to egg on the Jesus people, when the Islamistand roll red with blood and severed body parts. This, I find objectionable, even though I am not a Christian. But I still admire the Atheists sureity. Hmm, I'm not sure I admire complete certainty about non-trivial matters myself. But as Brent has explained elsewhere it's all down to semantics anyway, apparently Richard Dawkins believes there may be gods, and hence is in my terminology agnostic even as he loudly proclaims himself an atheist.
