If one of the greatest minds in human history can't figure them out, what chance do mere mortal men have? At least now I don't feel so mystified... :DL

[AVGWarhawk]

Trying to figure them out only drives one insane. Best to just go with the flow. :DL

[GoldenRivet]

if the smartest pimp in the world cant figure it out... im totally boned.

[Rockstar]

Once one accepts the fact she's always right the mystery solved.

Rolling up to a Woman on a killer Triumph,
and rolling up to a Woman in a wheelchair with a robotic voice?
:hmmm:
There's not much mystery here!
:haha:

The only ones who claim it's a mystery are those not getting..........
'noogies' for a polite term.
:D

Those getting 'noogies' when ever they want?
They have discovered the secret to the 'Biggest Mystery'.

It don't envolve a Wheel Chair and robot voice!
And as evolved as computers are?
Why the robot voice from 1982?
:hmmm:

Well, to be fair, I don't think Hawkings was always in a wheel chair with a robotic voice. Not sure what disease hit him, but I think earlier in his life he was as normal as you or I. At least, i remember reading an article saying as much.

According to Wikipedia,

The diagnosis of motor neurone disease came when Hawking was 21, shortly before his first marriage, and doctors said he would not survive more than two or three years.

He's been married and divorced twice, has 4 kids.
So he's certainly no stranger to women (although the divorced part certainly gives some clues to his position on this :D )

Funny enough, Hawking occasionally lives in my neighbourhood (we have an institute here where he holds a position and is in residence there sometimes).

I have very little respect for Hawking these days. It seems he's very much past his prime. His attempts to resolve the black hole information paradox in 2004 were an utter joke and incredibly intellectually lazy.

Yeah, sure. :doh:

So his friends will recognize his voice on the phone, duh. :lurk:

[kraznyi_oktjabr]

So his friends will recognize his voice on the phone, duh. :lurk:^This. There was Hawking's interview in finnish newspaper in last year. He said that he hadn't found good sounding version from modern equivalents and thats why he still uses that big synthezisator.

I'm split over Hawkings. Some of the stuff he calculated in earlier times, was apparently brilliant. But he also always came up with very strange ideas and concepts that made him look like a fool. He redefined the art of doomsday-calling (according to statements by him in the late 90s we all already should have seized to exist by now most likely), his view on technology being almost omnipotent and unlimited in possibilities imo is naive, his attempt how he explained why he does not need a deity to "explain" the universe and his earlier announcement of the hunt for the world formula imo made him look like a childish fool. So, there is obviously intellectual brightness and anti-intellectual foolishness both at the same time and in the same person. IMO he overstepped the limits when he implied that metaphysical Why's can be explained by cosmological How'S, making the Why disappear somehow. It stunned me more than one time that he fell into that trap.

Maybe he is just human!?

"They see me rolling, they hating..."


In all seriousness though, I have respect for Hawking, for what he's done against the odds. :yep:

[Madox58]

:haha:

I have respect for him.
And know he was not always confined to a wheelchair forced to use a computer to speak.
I believe the computer and the software that relies on his eye movement
was a break through way back when?
:hmmm:

A simple equation has worked for me:
