I never really thought of him as wildly intelligent. He just thought in different directions than most people of the time.
I’m smarter than Einstein in that at least I never embraced socialism.

All men are geniuses in their own place.
This is nothing but whoring after grant money.
Hmmmmmm
A while ago I had a patient who had a small benign tumor in her brain. Her behavior and emotions changed dramatically. When I spoke to her neurologist, he said it had nothing to do with the tumor...nothing.
The fact that she and her family reported significant change to funtioning and there was a newly discovered tumor was jsut an artifact.
If he had not been a Jew in Nazi Germany but instead a member of German National Socialist Party this would be a very different world today...
My anatomy instructor in college said that Einstein had far more glial cells than a ‘normal’ brain. Not sure how that would account for his intellect.
“Portions of Albert Einsteins brain have been found”
There’s some really strange stories about what may or may not have happened to his brain. There’s probably no telling for sure whether these guys are actually even working with part of his brain.
I have convinced myself that Einstein had either Asperger’s Syndrome or maybe was fully high-functioning autistic.
