Tribute to John Dawkins
As a follower of Richard Dawkins I was sad to hear that his father has died and I read the tribute Richard wrote. I was quite suprised. The guy was very much like us Ishers. Here's the article if anyone else is interested: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/obitu ... 57459.html
