It's interesting and kind of sad to celebrate a man that achieved more in publishing than most companies and to know it won't ever happen again.
Felix is a bit of a publishing martyr. Back in his hippie phase (not unlike the other cool tycoon, Sir Richard Branson) he went to jail briefly for pornography charges for publishing nudity in his 'Oz' magazine: http://www.oneplusoneequalsthree.com/2007/02/god_save_oz.html

Another plus for Dennis is that he still owns The Week, a newsmag which, though it ain't quite The Economist, is a far more informative and intelligent rag than Newsweek and Time - combined - are nowadays. (Or it was when I last looked at a copy, about a year ago.)
The Week has David Frum and Robert Shrum as contributing editors. You just know Dennis hired them because their names rhyme with "bum." They just don't make those kind of editorial decisions anywhere else.
This is the first time I've used the new comments setup and I'm irritated because I've got to write this into Notepad and then cut-and-paste it if I want to write this in minutes instead of hours. Or maybe I should just shell out the $400 for a new laptop.

*cough* or so I heard. Just a rumour though.
