Amazing person of the Day: Steven Hawking
Steve is most known for his expansive work on black holes. He's pretty much a genius. In addition to discovering theories about black holes, he spent most of his life searching for answers of the quantum theory. It's hard to understand, especially if one doesn't have concern of scientific details, but from what I understand, quantum theory is the theory that there is one equation that can be the scientific explanation for everything - a constant, applicable to everything. Albert Einstein searched for it, to no avail. Steven Hawking likewise spent forever searching for it, and someone told me he eventually just gave up and decided he didn't really care. I'm not sure. But he is an amazing guy. He also has ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), which concluded w/ him getting a tracheoctomy. Now he talks through a speech synthesizer.
Did you think all of this surpassingly great stuff about Steve was all?!? Well, it's for sure not all. There is so much more to Steven Hawking... He is a HUGE fan of Pink Floyd - like an uber-fan, basically. He financed the whole project of The Wall movie. He is featured on the amazing song "Keep Talking" on Pink Floyd's Division Bell album. It's his voice through the voice synthesizer. Steven Hawking's only complaint with the voice synthesizer is that it gives him an American accent (It was created by this guy in California). Steven is an Englishman. I'd be disappointed too, but at least it wasn't created by some guy in Mississippi or something. That'd be worse, eh?
Note to reader(s): Yeah I cannot figure out how to make all the font the same. You'd think this was easy. I dunno what to tell you. Call it abstract.

Wow Heather, that's abstract! Say something in "College." Our basement in Seward is flooded cuz it's been raining for like 3 days straight, and the four way stop is a lake now too. Yay!
