I am listening to a wonderful tribute programme on Radio 5 with contributions from scientists and others who were touched by him. RIP Stephen.

Brilliant sense of humour as evidenced by his occasional "appearances" on The Simpsons and regularly on The Big Bang Theory.

Shame they can't just switch him off and then on again and"reboot".

Saw this on FB, and think it's the best tribute so far to a truly remarkable man. Certainly, the most poignant.

Wonderful tribute although I'm not sure the man himself believen he was going to a higher place. But as you say very, poignant R.I.P

When I heard he'd reached 76, I thought "That's one heck of a motor he's got on his wheelchair".   :)
