Yes! I totally saw him live last year. (The real Stephen Hawking). He did like, a forty minute set, then crowd dived into a mass of physics and chemistry teachers/students/researchers. It was wild man. :twisted:
Okay seriously, I saw him in San Jose. He did a lecture on...what was it exactly? Origins of the universe, and the relation of time and space and whatnot I do believe. He had a lot of really funny (though somewhat bad, which is what made them good) puns, graphics, analogies, etc., etc. Pretty cool stuff...for science anyway.
