he types words into a laptop that speaks for him. the software was developed by a man in california and uses an americanized vocabulary/dialect/accent. it is known to irritate Mr. Hawking, though he was happy to receive the technology.

For the record, I've met Stephen Hawkings, and he's a damn funny guy besides his inability to speak without his computer...

One of the first things he said was "Pardon me for my American accent" :thumbup:
