All of which is preferable to the pusillanimous punditry you have been 
trafficking in lately.  There must be a Curmudgeons R-Us self-help group 
somewhere near you.

(Anyone recommend any NEW novels here?

I haven't read anything I would recommend since Accelerando by Charles Stross 
and Perdido Street Station by China Mieville. I tend to do the classics--I will 
check out Manhattan Transfer.)

BTW -- Have you ever read "Manhattan Transfer" by John E. Stith. I purchased it 
a few days ago when a friend told me my novel reminded him of that book. I'll 
get crackin on it in a week or so. Any novels you would recommend?

U.R.:

Interesting thoughts and also sounds like it would make an excellent plot for a 
novel or short story. I don't know if you write or not, but you just laid out a 
heckuva plot.

BTW -- Have you ever read "Manhattan Transfer" by John E. Stith. I purchased it 
a few days ago when a friend told me my novel reminded him of that book. I'll 
get crackin on it in a week or so. Any novels you would recommend?

  Maybe Hawking doesn't want us to contact any MORE aliens because h is in 
fact the advance party of an invasion of some other space aliens.



Think about it.  This guy knows an awful lot about space and time though he has 
never been there.



He has to sit in a wheelchair (possibly because his alien muscles cannot adapt 
to our gravity?)



He must use a computer to speak to us (possibly because his alien physionomy is 
incapable of reproducing human speech!)



I know he is supposed to be suffering from a degenerative illness.  Michael 
Jackson was supposed to have vitiligo (and what about Sammy Sosa?)



Has anyone spoken to his doctor or seen his medical records?
