Quite a surprise for me to see 'Stephen Hawking' in ur list. I have a great respect for him. What a brain he has!!!

why does it surprise you that I would like to meet Stephen Hawking???

Coz it is very rare i see people who want to meet physicists. May be, they don't want to give a celebrity status for men in that field.

they are celebrity in their own right.
