Stephen Hawking moving to Canada?
Apparently Hawking is disgruntled with the current science funding cuts in place in Britain and may leave Cambridge to join the famous Perimeter Institute! If you don't know about the perimeter institute it's a Waterloo-based theoretical physics institution founded/funded by the RIM (of blackberry fame) maverick Mike Lazaridis, and it is known for its collegial atmosphere and high profile members. This is quite a coup. No word yet if he'll be back on the bayblab podcast...

He's totally just coming to kick the bayblab's ass for making fun of him in your podcasts. I hope he runs over you with his chair.

You're wrong.
He is coming, But maybe not staying....
Hawking's graduate assistant Sam Blackburn had told the Telegraph on Tuesday, "I think Professor Hawking is mulling it over but a move isn't imminent.
"He would not make plans to permanently move to a place he hasn't visited yet, but he is open to it," he said.
Turok told the Telegraph that Hawking plans to visit in 2009 and "we would certainly welcome him coming for longer."

Well wherever you come from we know that English is dead! Canada rocks you illiterate.
So, I do not really consider it may have success.
