I dunno, he may be the worlds best known atheist for all i know
I can't think of anyone more well-known (pass on the 'respected' part). Who am I missing?

Billy Joel, Lance Armstrong, Angelina Jolie, Bruce Willis, Keanu Reeves...etc. etc.
Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman.
Greta Garbo, and Monroe
Dietrich and DiMaggio
Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean

What are you doing up at this early/late hour? Has DST ended early over there?

Which means I'm going to be paying a LOT more attention to that part of the AGM that deals with the accounts from now on. Even though it's unlikely that anyone is going to want to dip their hands in the till in an organisation that makes zero profit, is funded entirely from member subscriptions, and has total assets that are probably less than the loose change in Dawkins' pocket.
That tangential diversion aside, I've recently had reason to become acquainted with what the Charity Commissioners are like, and with our organisation, they have been ruthless of late. If we mis-handle the meticulous recording in the books of the purchase of a single postage stamp, we're likely to be given a hard smack across the chops. So this débacle should result in Dawkins having his arse cheeks well and truly stir-fried in fucking napalm.

Woah, I need some sleep. Read that as "her very weird on-line bushes", and actually considered googling for images.

Yes, we are moving to Portland! Life is short and it’s time for a change. We found a great loft in the Pearl District, I’ve never lived in a city so this will be fun for me. Goldie is excited because she heard that Portland is a super dog friendly town, she can’t wait to sniff it out. Josh is from Portland so his family and friends are really excited to have him back. It will be great for him to start playing music again with his boys. I love the outdoors and Portland has lots of it for me to explore. I can’t wait to get in my kayak and float down a river somewhere. I’m ready for an adventure, and the best part of it is that my son Graham has moved there too!!
Aside from the West Hills (which are homes and mansions), The Pearl District is the most ritzy and expensive part of town in Portland. There's your money $$$

When "Deep Throat" was in theaters I had a date with a gal I'd known for years. First time we'd been out, however. I asked her where she'd like to go and she indicated she wanted to see Linda Lovelace's movie. My jaw went down a notch or two when she explained why, "I want to see if there's anything I can learn from it."

Certainly should be, it's obviously been completely mismanaged. I wonder if there are any UK laws that might come down on Dawkins himself--apparently there was no written contract towards Timonen; apparently no or incompetent accounting over many years. Certainly thousands of contributers/buyers of shirts were frauded. I don't see why Timonen should be the only one responsible here, legally (or morally or logically).
That's not at all obvious. The Store was run by UBP, not RDF.
There is no indication that there is "no or incompetent accounting." UBP certainly had an accounting system, since it's referenced in Dawkins' complaint. Whether it is "incompetent" remains to be seen.
It's not certain that buyers of shirts were defrauded. That allegation hasn't even been made.
