http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/science/04/20/hawking.health/index.html A true hero. To overcome his disability and to become the voice (without one) of modern physics is an incredible feat. I hope he recovers but from the looks of it it does not look good.
sad news. hawking actually did something very heroic recently, from what I saw on a show, which was contradict his own theory................. Hope he makes it out ok.
What's sad is that I dreamed last night that Steven Hawkins died. I rarely have dreams about real people I don't know and I don't consider myself psychic but I think it was an odd coincidence. I hope I am wrong and believe that I am.
One of the 20th century's preeminent physicists. Hopefully he can get through this like he does so many of his personal trials.
Though I don't care for some of his views, he is undeniably a genious. I certainly hope he makes it through this okay
