Steven Hawking

Heard the bold Steven on the TV last night, he was talking about global warming being a bigger threat to the world than terrorism, and that there should be a war on global warming instead of a war on terror. All good points, i like it as it has a go at Bush, and helps to save the planet in the one statement, but couldn't help wondering why he won't change his voice.

That freaky computer voice is very 80's sci fi. They really have come on leaps and bounds since then. I've a voice simulator at home that will do everything from little girl to truck driver.

I figure with him hanging around with science type people, he's sure to know this. So why the hell doesn't he change it!

Maybe that's what he's comfortable with at this stage, or figures its part of his image. Maybe he has a 'home' voice and an 'interview' voice. Much to mull over...
