Stephan Hawking dies at the age of 76
 
Felt morbid hearing this this morning.

Another great man gone but has left an incredible legacy and level of understanding to the world.

Defying the nature of illness from the age of 21, he's an incredible inspiration to us all and we be for many, many centuries.

Rip, a legend.

this morning my grandmother told me she didn’t know he was a real person

A terrible loss to the scientific community, and to humanity in general. A real example of a man who would not allow his disability to prevent him doing what he wanted to do, and proof that the mind is more powerful than the body. RIP Professor Hawking.

I saw that on the news this morning and had to do a double take. The man certainly had integrity and more character than some people have in their pinky toes. His contributions to our world are phenomenal. RIP Steve.

Rest in peace.

Everyone knew who he was even if they weren't familiar with his work.

Unreal he was told he had two years to live at 21 and lived until he was 76.

You have to admire Big Steve.

RIP to our greatest cyborg. His novels always seemed to flub the ending, but I thought that 1408 was great.

Didn't know he was British tbh. Not a trace of an accent.

He proved the existence of black holes early in his career and then made some embarrassing attempts to reclaim the limelight with big announcements that turned out to be aimless speculation.

Some people thought he was retarded because he looked like a retard. He did have ALS so it really depends on how you define retard. The standard sixth grade usage did in fact apply to Hawking.

Try harder. People don't live that long with ALS. It is a physical impossibility.

Stephen Hawking was diagnosed when he was twenty-one. They say the younger a person is when they are diagnosed with ALS the longer they live compared to someone who is diagnosed later in life. The most common is between the ages of fifty-five and seventy-five, and life expectancy is two to five years after diagnosis. Now most people know that the greatest Yankee second only to Babe Ruth aka the Big Bambino, aka the Sultan of Swat was Lou Gehrig, aka the Iron Horse. And I assume most people know that ALS is also known as Lou Gehrig disease. However some in the medical field today suspect that Lou Gehrig didn't suffer from ALS but brain trauma. And they believe this may be the case with ball players and soldiers that were thought to have ALS but most likely have TBI. Certain diseases share the same symptoms and so a person can be thought to have a disease they don't really have. Maybe misdiagnosed is not the best word to use, because of the lack scientific medical information that is available. Maybe it is the same with Stephen Hawking, maybe he had ALS or maybe he suffered from Polio. You have to understand that the scientific back in 1963 is no way comparable to what is known today. So if you base the crux of the argument on ALS and here it may turn out that he didn't have it to begin Smith then that blows up your whole "Stephen Fauxking Conspiracy Theory."

It would be easier for everyone.

He wouldn't have much to put in it though.

Unless that, too, were a conspiracy....

Ah, but then....
Hmm..
