You are now reading this in my voice. :)

To the mention of women:

Jane Hawking (née Wilde), Hawking's first wife, cared for him until 1991 when the couple separated, reportedly because of the pressures of fame and his increasing disability.


My physics teacher always said he broke up because he had an affair. At the time we thought it was with her. :lol:

Nor me. Neutral apparently, but I have been told I've picked up tones from regions I've lived in, only to lose them when I move on.

Why can't they use some sort of brain controlled device?

There is a talk on TED where a guy can move objects around a screen just by thinking about it. The device was just placed on his head like a baseball cap and he only needed to teach it his brain pattern once for each command (push, pull, lift, drop, disappear, etc...)

Surely that would be the way to go?
