I spent today attending the funeral of Chris Tame. I never met Chris in person -- we corresponded only by email over the years. He re-published several of my essays at the Libertarian Alliance and encouraged me to write several new ones especially for LA, which I did in 2004 (Ayn Rand and American Culture and Ayn Rand and the Ascent of Man). I had always wanted to meet Chris if I ever got to London. This week I finally got to London but Chris was gone. May he rest in peace.
