Watching that man and hearing him speak makes me physically ill. I really loathe his extreme smugness and the constant grin on his face. The way he emphasizes his speech is also annoying, how it appears that he thinks every single thing he says is some kind of fundamental truth no matter how mundane a topic or point he brings up.

I'm sure he's a nice enough man in person, but for some reason there's just something about him that's extremely irksome. Just seems like some people just can't stand each other, most of the time for little to no real reason. For me it's this guy and that newswoman Amy Goodman.

I actually like this man. And he also send out a good message to young potential scientists. You don't have to be a stereotypical nerd to be a scientist.

I thought this was a pretty good interview. For once not completely side-tracked for comedy by Colbert. Good.

Well, just about everything he ever talks about is some kind of fundamental truth about the world we live in, I can sympathize with your objection to how he talks, but if you can stand it, or ignore its peculiarity, I strongly recommend his TEDtalks lecture on the Large Hadron Collider , one of the best presentations I have ever seen. Enjoy, if you can
