  2. John Smith from Canada writes: Geez, first no NHL team and now no Hawking. What possible reasons could there be to live in Waterloo then?

    Q.Will he peak into my transportation box en route? -Shrodinger's cat

  4. Mike Sun from Canada writes: Waterloo? It's such a boring place. Terminal dullness. I'd rather be an ordinary civilian in New York City than be a professor in Waterloo.
  5. Michael Sharp from Victoria, Canada writes:

    Stephen Hawking's Waterloo.
  6. Antonio San from Canada writes: If only Stephen's science had to do with AGW... He would get funding LOL
  7. charlie brown from Canada writes: To Antonio San. I, and many other posters, are always annoyed and saddened by folks who make drive-by smears at persons, like our PM, who have absolutely nothing to do with the story. Please try and stay on topic and vent your biased spleen when the story is more topical.
  8. Canadian Pragmatist from Canada writes: Dear Charlie, I think Antonio San was very on topic. If your project is the flavour of the day with those controlling the purse strings, you get funded. If not, you don't. The current flavour is Global Warming.

    Oh, by the way, Stephen is the first name of the physicist as well as that of the PM.
  9. Able Bodied Man from It's NOT 'VICTORIA' Island, Canada writes:
    Mr. Hawking could check out the G&M boards and write a book called "The History of DWPs."
