Yeah, he was not a normal person. He didn't talk until he was 3, but he was working on his own notation for Calculus in high school. Wiki claims it's from his book, he was the only person willing to testify for them when the authorities were trying to shut it down.

Probably.
I do think some of these minds are SO good that it either pushes out/doesn't care about other stuff. Which is why we have the "eccentric" professors, or the "mad scientists" and that jazz. Supposedly Eintstein failed a lot of HS, then it "clicked" I guess. How come the click never happened to me?  |

Me neither, but today in 1338
Ly Anh Tong was enthroned as emperor of Vietnam at the age of two, starting a 37-year reign. I am always forgetting what day that happened, thank god for wiki |

And I'm addicted to the music used on the BBC iPlayer advert.
Nick Webb, apparently. |

Did you know...
... that "The Ballad of Molly Mogg" was "writ by two or three men of wit" – John Gay, Alexander Pope and Dean Swift – while sheltering from a storm? Actually, I did.  'twas written in a pub in Surrey. Woking, I think. |

I posted about it on PA, you weren't paying attention. oh wow it is late I am going to stop reading about physics on wikipedia and go to bed. I feel bad for the people who really have a micropenis. It may not be as bad as some of the chromosonal disorders, but it's still a sh*tty genetic hand. |
