President Obama, and many who proceed him claims that want to their schools to meet the needs of their best and brightest. Given what I have experienced throughout my life, the chances of that happening is very small; my naive empirical observation is the truly best bringing great innovation tend to be autodidact.
Until I read the article, blogs, and watched the video about Chris Langan I struggled with the fact that I actually had a better grasp many ideas in physical world that the population at large; much of my interaction with a great many people is a kind of politeness, many times claiming ignorance just to avoid a lengthy conversation which does not always work.
By no means am I ever trying to be condescending to anyone or belittle them. But by the times I step out of my Ivory Tower seeking human interaction, I am seeking good kind people willing to share their company and the beauty of simply sharing a place in time with other humans watching the glow of each ones inner beauty. I simply have no desire and many time the energy during these rest time to engage anyone in lengthy and sometimes difficult effort of getting concepts out of my head and articulate them in a linear manner {tell story of two morons watching me write a programs}
Reading and viewing the history of Chris Langan I was amused by much of what he was saying for, I was thinking for the most part what he was verbalizing but out of politeness keeping my mouth shut. After-all, humans, and for than matter many primates wield isolation as a weapon isolating any entity outside the mean; the average matters.
But, the Chris Langan exposition also angered me. For like him there were many clear opportunities when an insightful individual would have been helpful in clearing a path for my pursuit of knowledge rather than have me fight over ever obstacle in search of the truth about the universe.
This particular page is to document document all the ugly little monkeys that I have had to overcome to get where I am now; although nowhere as far along as I would have liked be; they could have made a difference. It is hoped my stories will let you know there are others like us, who are far above the averages, who on a daily basis must live within its confines else suffer the wrath of the masses.
