Hi tribdog.. :smile:
I heard the synthetic voice actually say it.
The $100 bet (BBC interview) was great fun, but I forget the context of some of it.
I am going to try and find a link for it.

OK - I found it..

As George has said above, if radiation from black holes is detected at the LHC, then Hawking will get a Nobel prize: I don't think there's any "maybe" about it!

Neither does he, apparently :rolleyes:
