@MrBobby0088 The only dumb thing on this page is you taking time out of your day to make a negative comment on a video made about a brilliant man that has passed away. His friends, family, and children watch this video. Please try and keep your rude comments to yourself.

I always meet the greatest people after they have died. But that's a heck of a lot better than not meeting them at all! Godspeed, Professor.
