I've observed that the world's most awesome people are pretty strongly connected, graph-theoretically. I would bet that there are well fewer than six degrees between, say, Eliezer and Hitchens under the relation "good friends with".
The four horseman probably are, one of them being Randi who speaks soon the singinst conference.
The four horsemen are Dennett, Hitchens, Harris and Dawkins, no?
I always feel embarrassed for them when I hear them called that.
They have sort-of adopted the label. I'm thinking of the lecture at which Dennett put his hand up and started a question with "I'm Dan Dennett, one of the four horsemen of atheism, and I'd like to ask..."
Oh my, I confused them.
