"Homer, your theory of a donut-shaped universe is intriguing. I might have to steal it." :lol:

Sorry, it's just when I hear about Stephen Hawking, I always think of that Simpsons episode :grin:

LOL

Well, the whole Simpson's episode plays on the idea that Stephen Hawking stole a lot of his ideas. But what people don't always understand that he got a lot of discretization in the physics community when he presented his idea about black holes and that somehow information that falls into a black hole disappears from the universe. Which was later discredited, and from his mistake he found Hawking radiation which is a key part of black hole evaporation.

I never thought he stole any of his ideas. I was just relating him to something I actually knew about :) I know he is a VERY brilliant man and has overcome some serious obstacles to achieve what he has done today.

If it's the dramatisation that aired here a few years back it's excellent viewing even if you don't know anything about Hawking.

that also reminds me of two things. one is a family guy episode where it shows edison stealing the law of thoeory(?) and him stealing God's invention of the shrinky dink. the second is wen hawkings explains a miniature blackhole at the warehouse

It was a dramatization of his early research career, and the time when his disease started taking hold. It premiered last Sunday, and was quite good.
