I have to say that it was a sad day in that we lost Stephen Hawking today -- but leaving on Pi Day was classy of him.

    Oh, wow.  I wasn't aware of this.  That certainly IS sad.  :(

      It's also Einstein's birthday. He (edited to clarify that I'm referring to Hawkin) went out in style. And now he knows all the answers that we can only contemplate.

      I'm trying so hard to not eat more pie, lol!

      It's very sad and weird that he's not in the world anymore. Not that I knew him or anything, but it's like with the Queen -- I never knew a world without her, and ditto for Hawking.  ETA: the Queen is not dead, but she's getting on and I've thought how weird it'll be to have a King.
