I'm really glad to hear that, he's a true hero.

and I got to take a picture with him :) !

Is it just coincidence that by far the longest survivor of ALS also happens to be super smart?

Yes?

40+ years and still going!!

Great news! What an inspiration.

At first glance, I assumed "full recovery" meant to recover from ALS, but realized that it's totally not what the word 'full' entailed. Anyway, glad he's better.

Well, to be fair, in this case a "full recovery" is relative, but still good to hear.

Parallel Universes?

Could anybody here please bring some credible experience from this field? You know, just like the Christians, who are able to report even daily experiences (see Medjugorje).

I never ever heard of anything less proven than parallel universes in my whole lifetime.

What have parallel universes got to do with the linked article?

What has all the fuss about the most pseudo scientist of the last decade to do with interesting news here?

Is it only because he is -- very handicapped?

Living in Europe, the scene here is very contradicting: most handicapped people here are 'asked' (more-or-less) to be helped to die soon -- you know, costs etc... (just like with Hitler, only in a more-modern version...)
