An extraordinary person who received a death sentence of two years by the doctors when he was diagnosed with his illness at 21.

Whilst I can't be shocked at his death I am most certainly saddened. An amazing mind in an increasingly frail body able to think amazing things. And he wasn't afraid to admit when he was wrong either. He later on thought that information could come out of a blackhole whereas before he had said that it couldn't.
RIP Stephen

Has anyone reported the cause of death? Or is it just ALS in the end?

Im shocked at how low society can be these days, no respect for anyone.
He's only just passed away and facebook is full of jokes about his death

Wow, really? I have seen nothing but praise and respect for him on my feed.
It's also Einstein's birthday today. What are the chances... (well, 1 in 365)
