desertbluesman Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Since I am a big believer in modern science, Stephen Hawking is one of those whom I thought very well of, and admired.

Larryz Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Rest in Peace Steven Hawking... https://www.thewrap.com/big-bang-theory-cast-remembers-stephen-hawking/ <---I remember him coming on and playing himself on the Big Bang Theory. From their comments you can tell that the cast truly admired him, as did I...he did a great job acting on the show even though it played such a small part in his life. I truly enjoyed watching the few episodes I managed to catch. Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d halfnote Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 ... playing himself on the Big Bang Theory. From their comments you can tell that the cast truly admired him... One of the actresses there, Mayim Bialik, actually has a PhD or Masters in neuroscience. AString's a big fan of that show...I left room for him to post Hawking's app there....til you stepped up & did it, LarZ. d=halfnote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skipclone 1 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Many years ago, I read A Brief History of Time-and the word `unimaginable` kind of dropped out of my vocabulary. SH had the vision to imagine-and diagram-what was previously unseen and umimagined. On those days when I feel like civilization is drowning in stupid, I will remember him.

whitefang Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 On those days when I feel like civilization is drowning in stupid, I will remember him. Ha! Based on that, he must be hard to forget!

d halfnote Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 Sad he had to suffer so much. A remarkable man. RIP It's deeply ironic that a person whose body gradually lost every means of mobility, ultimately leaving him nothing but the ability to focus his eyes was able to envision the vast possibilities of the universe in a way wider than anyone else. BTW, I hope he's not upset that I misspelled him name. d=halfnote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d halfnote Posted March 19, 2018 Author Share Posted March 19, 2018 As you watch this interview...& they song perf that follows it, which again betrays his deep sense of humor as well as his serious consideration of our existence, consider that the quick facility of his answers actually involved the submission questions in advance & the careful development of his answers, followed by the letter by letter selection of his response & its insertion in the speech program that provided his communications. Depending on his degree of editing to arrange things (remember, no paper or jotting notes), any single sentence might've taken hours to construct. Plus, for over 50 years absolutely no privacy.

A String Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Some great posts here. Stephen Hawking was certainly a man that I admired. His work will live on for years. In fact, he was in the process of co-authoring a paper on a method that would prove the theory of a Multiverse. It looks fairly promising, I hear (I haven't read the paper yet). Unraveling the mysteries of the Universe used to belong to Einstein, then Hawking. I hope we get another forward thinker soon. The work must continue. RIP Mr. Hawking.
