Hawkins seems to be on another level to everyone else intelectually, but I guess he has more freedom of information available to him than any of the great minds that came before him.
Truely remarkable guy though.

Matt,

The difference with AJ and you is I know you are being a cunt, AJ just pretends to be one

Besides, taking the piss out of the disabled isnt something I think is worthy of normal banter
of which you make it always personal to me even though you dont actually know me.

*touches nose twice with index finger*

Plus his treatise Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica is supposed to be the best work ever!!


And famous quotes like
