But I can't help feeling that we have too much information. This is the problem these days - we don't really know anything about the matter, only what 'they' choose to tell us, so wouldn't it be better to say much less. As someone once said - a little learning is a dangerous thing."<br /><br />I agree with you on this point. But also, I find myself growing suspicious when they suddenly "know" who did it and shout it at us until we believe it.

I rather suspect that knowing that he had such a high standard of intelligence and that by carrying on that he could offer so much to science and mankind, was what inspired his longevity. I rather suspect that ordinary people with the disease, with little to offer mankind and little reason to stay alive, would soon and happily, succumb to the disease, I certainly would.Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-17523633177989865192018-03-14T23:52:20.024-07:002018-03-14T23:52:20.024-07:00Agree that we have too much news, or to be more ac...Agree that we have too much news, or to be more accurate, speculation.

Of the people I have known of, this estimate has been correct. And we hear frequently of others who want to end their lives when inside this short period they can no longer swallow and want to die. I wonder about this, I don't know, but I don't think it would be so inspirational to me to know he lived 50 years. It is a puzzle. Maybe he had something else or he was the Messiah. He was a great man to science and mathematics, no doubt about that, and discoveries still go on that I believe were a mystery to Hawking towards the end of his life as science moved on without him.

You don't imagine Russian spies retiring there for starters! I think the authorities have been rather lax in their letting people know how safe it is to be in central Salisbury.

The poisoning topic is both riveting & scary. Professor Hawking, though an atheist, was a brilliant man. I hate math and only like the stars & moon in the sky, so he wasn't really much on my radar. Typically wealthy male asshole, though, he did leave his wife of 30 years for his caregiver. Even brilliance can't change nature... Oh, well, he knows now if there's a heaven/hell. RIP star-man.

It was so sad to hear of Professor Hawking. I admired him very much. I enjoyed his humor and like Gwil said he made me curious about the world and space around me.

He will be missed. <br /><br />This age of information overload could be our downfall if we don't learn to control it. jinxxxygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12349344319328467284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-20465851113296262112018-03-14T07:13:18.858-07:002018-03-14T07:13:18.858-07:00Agree with you about too much information!

He has made me insatiably curious about the world, the universe and everything. He has made me read books I would never have thought of reading. I liked him for he had humour and courage in great measure. Qualities sadly in decline in this heavily censored world of ours. <br /><br />Somewhere in curved space he'll be celebrating Albert Einstein's birthday. It is today. He had an invitation. And so he went.
