Sheldon on The Big Bang Theory tv show became freinds with Stephen Hawking and there are several episodes with him in them. He died today at the age of 76. He had been diagnosed with amyotropic lateral sclerosis when he was 21. He was incapable of speech and confined to a wheelchair. He was a physicist and a leader in the study of black holes, physical cosmology and quantum mechanics. He died on Albert Einstein's birthday.

Could be. They may need someone to take Stephen's place.

It would do our country good if we had a holiday in Hawkin's honor. He should be a hero. He did work for the good of society.
