Emailing Prof. Hawking

Professor Stephen Hawking has his own web site, and if you act now, you can buy his specially designed, wheelchair friendly hot air balloon basket.

You can even email him. So, I decided I would:

Dear Professor Hawking,

Thank you for making the field of physics more approachable to us all. At a time, here in the United States when ignorance of science is not just admitted, but boasted about, thank you for pressing forward on our behalf, exploring the unknown, and scraping at the veneer of superstition to reveal the truth beneath, whatever it may be.

Thank you also for being willing to admit when you're wrong. May you live long and may we continue to learn from you.

Kind regards,

Robert S.
