Why do I have to listen?
Celebrity worshipping?
All I saw were comments filled with pessimism. It's really disturbing. Prophets of doom.
Did you "listen"? What was your impression of it?

sometimes. but not this time. it's nothing new. doomsday was preached since the beginning of time. we all hear it from church, parents, and our peers. only things that i haven't heard before, that's when i'll listen.

You have to listen because his robot voice is SO FREAKIN' COOL!!
But in all seriousness, I think it's celebrity vanity more than anything. Isn't HE supposed to be the genius who knows the answer to the question anyway? If I remember correctly, Bono's question was about just as pointless.
Maybe it's just me being a bit paranoid or something, but it seemed like the questions were asked more out of condescension than legitimate curiosity. Either that or the whole "look at me!" factor. All the same, when celebrities speak, I've trained myself to "not listen" for the most part. Stephen Hawking or otherwise. If I really cared to hear what he (or any other celebrity) had to say,I wouldn't look for it on Yahoo Answers, that's for sure.

No, I didn't know I was suppose to listen to anything. I've seen the header at the top. But where is the question/answer?
Oh, just clicked on the link and stopped reading when it said, "he admittedly doesn't have the answer"
Interesting.

No, I don't regard him as someone I really need to hear, so I didn't take the time.
