Genius
I'm not a big fan of the culture of genius. I've met a whole bunch of very bright people in my time. I've even met a quite a few very, very bright folks. And maybe fewer than a handful of people I've got down as geniuses. These include:
- Tom Ades
- Michael Izard
- David Cornwell (John le Carré)
I met two more today, which ain't bad. Dan Boneh (Stanford) and Alfred Menezes (Waterloo). They could hardly be more different, but in both cases, their brilliance shown through. Great discussions with them, too. Hopefully managed not to seem like a complete idiot...
