A man who beat the odds, Hawking, has passed

[Bailey Guns]

Didn't he recently say the earth was doomed within the next 100 years? That we needed to colonize Mars or the moon or something because of global warming?

He understood things I never will. But he was out there on a few things, too.

reat in peace Stephen. The world lost a brilliant mind.

Not sure he took into account that continued human existence is not indefinite.

He lived in the theoretical.

Rip. I'd say there will never be another but I'm sure he would be the first one to correct me stating that the mathematics proves otherwise given an infinite amount of time.

I wrote him a letter. I got a reply from his assistants, basically saying he was too busy. He did say, not to send any signals to extraterrestrial civilizations. We would be doomed if it wasn't for the Arecibo message. I really like Cambridge, very nice area. I would love to retire in that area of the world. Farewell Mr Hawking.

Anyone believing in the Big Bang has to do so by faith, since the math simply doesn't work.

...but let's just ignore that.

I always wondered if ALS enabled Hawking to understand things better than others simply because all he could do effectively was think. When your body fails you and all you can do all day is think about solving mathematical problems it's not too much of a surprise that he could figure crap out that other people couldn't. Everyone else is burdened by having to deal with everything else in their normal daily lives.

Possible, but he was like that before he was diagnosed.

Mental masturbation.
