What are you talking about?
[EDIT] OMG it's really him!
I know he has a lot of people working for him, advisors and helpers, perhaps they will scan through the best of the answers and pass them on to him. It is highly unlikely he will read all the answers, he's a very busy man.

What makes you thing Stephen Hawking has both the time and authority to answer every question posted?

He must be a speed-reading demon to do so. Sure hope he does though. The validity of his Yahoo! identity is at stake here... otherwise, anyone can make up identities here and put messed up questions and answers on the board, with no regards to the actual people that are being imitated. In other words, Yahoo! Answers would be total GAY if they allow his not to pick or put in a good answer.

He has not put up the question for selecting the best answer, but just to know what is the opinion of people answering his question for the purpose of collection of data, which he may be needing for his next book like his earlier book '1988' written in the style of another author's book '1984', but nothing happened as predicted in that book.
So, he will be getting enough material for his next book, which may earn royalty worth millions millions of dollars.

I think it likely an editorial board from yahoo will review the answers first. Then, then they will present him with the ones they picked as most pertinent to his answer, either using guidelines he provided, or their own judgement.
The problem is, I see them presenting him with anywhere from 1 to 10 to chose from, which is not much of a choice considering the thousands of entries.

It'll be impossible to decide a best answer out of all the answers he recieved. I think you just have to go with the first one that sticks out and makes you say "YES. THATS WHAT I WAS THINKING." They then recieve 10 points.

This one, I think will really happen the right way.
I mean he will probably read all of them, after all, he doesn't have much of anything else to do. He strikes me as the kind of guy who will see this through to the end.

i doubt that anyone would want to read through thousands of responses and pick a best answer. it just gets boring after a while.

of course, the Dr. will go through all the answers and choose a best answer.

I think there are 8000 answers at this point. I doubt he will read them all. if any! too bad, I really wanted Gore to read my anser to his question, but there are so many imbiciles who write rude answers, who would want to read them?
