    Default Stephen Hawking's Flight of Fancy

    I read this and, don't get me wrong I think it is great that he was able to do this, for some reason all I could picture is a Family Guy spoof.

    DOHHH!!! I noticed that after I posted, but I cannot edit the post title, rats!

    If a moderator can change it to "fancy", I would surely appreciate it, sorry.

    I think its wonderful that he can experience something outside of his wheelchair, kinda of like a flightless bird that for a brief period is given the ability to soar.
    I find most people irritating

    Yes, that is what I was thinking. Well, not quite the flightless bird thing, but you know what I mean. I mean, he devoted his life to astrophysics and until he can get into space, this is a huge leap for him. Did you see the video?
