A man of superlative mind in a broken body. Hawking did more to awaken the world to physics than any other individual. We are fortunate to have had his presence for as long as we did. The world is less today, now absent his insights.
Very sad indeed......too bad there was never a cure for the horrible disease he had.....but he sure made do with what he had!! a great lesson for all of us.....and I love the fact that he was a fan of Marilyn Monroe's!!!! how cool is that!?!?!?
The link would not work for me so I googled 'Stephen Hawking'. Yes it is sorrowful to hear of his passing. One article goes on to say his IQ and some other notable person's was 160. Remarkable! Also mentions a 12 year old schoolgirl scoring 162 on the Mensa test. Was that you?
