Tis sad, Did anyone else see during the coverage of the millenium around the world the segment that had a message to the world from Steven Hawkings? This mans mind has to be one of the most brilliant of the millenium! Granted it is trapped in a for most purposes a non functional body. But they could have at least gave him some dignity! He was in his usual semi crumpled position that we all have come to be used to,, but he was DROOLING! allover himself! The only thing in the message they played that was moving was his drool! They could have easily saved all the audio portion from his computer generated voice machine and froze the video and no-one would have known the difference. I don't know or couldn't tell if Steven knew he was drooling or not. I can't say,, but the producers and or editors surely seen it, and should have done something to give this great man some more respect and dignity..
