Famed mathematician Stephen Hawking was rushed to a hospital Monday and was seriously ill, Cambridge University said.

The university said Hawking has been fighting a chest infection for several weeks, and was being treated at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge, the university city north of London.

The Fark headline for this is "Stephen Hawking rushed to hospital, doctors fear he may never walk again"

[Frown] My uncle, who has ALS, has had recurrent chest infections this season. Not good. The last one was pneumonia complicated by MRSA. Ouch.

Woot! That man has massively too much left in him to contribute to modern science before he can die.

We should make a petition to keep death away.
