Just goes to show that even the illustrious Dr. Hawking isn't

The series looks kind of pathetic...in the show about wormholes and time
travel he explained time dilation at near-light velocities as if it was
some bold new concept that no one watching the show would have ever
heard of before.
Frankly, if it weren't for the fact that he is completely paralyzed, I
doubt that anyone would pay anywhere as much attention to him as they do.
Of course after The Stephen Hawking Show ended, who should arrive in the
next program up but everyone's _other_ favorite sage on everything
scientific, Michio Kaku.
I blame Carl Sagan for getting this whole "Mr. Science Expert" ball rolling.
