That is in God's job description, I suspect Hawking may come back as a DUPer for he was too clever by half in this life.

NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

I don't know much about neurology, cosmology or even physics, but I probably have more experience in ITSM than Hawking's doctors.

To be fair, more people have probably spent a hour or two watching Bullseye, than have spent an hour or two reading a brief history of time.pwrmoore wrote:As if losing Stephen Hawking wasn't enough for one day....
