His weapons are his chair, surprise and a ruthless efficiency.

I'm waiting for the headline reporting that Stephen Hawking has become Davros.
I'm waiting for the headline reporting him dead. That will be a sad day. He's done astonishing stuff from that motorized chair of his, and cheated the sickle-bearer for more than half a century now.

Hawking is an interesting case. He is a brilliant guy, but his significance to science is somewhat inflated in the public eye. A bit like Dawkins, he is -nowadays- arguably more important as an inspirational icon of science than as a scientist in the strict sense. Although I think he is more important in gravity physics than Dawkins is in evolutionary biology.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

But surely he's not more important than Al Gore.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK "That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke |
