In January, during a  BBC Reith lecture, Hawking said humankind is
inching closer to demise, and it’s our fault.

He said 1,000 years somewhere, until humankind snuffs itself. Hawking IS an optimist.

But the bottom line, AND THE CRUX OF THE BISCUIT is

"It's not going to happen in MY lifetime so fuck the great great great great great great great ... great grandkids. I don't even give a fuck about the ones existent now. They just suck all the mythical 'money' I use to buy shiny toys manufactured in facilities powered by coal, and OFC eCars.... Must have an eCar so they can build MORE coal-fired powerplants.".

Ps. still working on a quart can of oil I bought five years ago to oil my bike.
