<<...reading 101?>>Like to tell a true story of David Foster Wallace that wrote a classic masterpiece over a 1,000 pages long, called "Infinite Jest", that i think wom Nation Book Awards for best novel the year it came out. A man, that Charlie Rose said in an interview wih him said "y0u do konow you have a mind the size of planet/ to which he said "yeh but the danger is can explode"
When he wrote the first manuscript of" Infinite Jest" the proofreader noted 700.000 errors!!!!!
Now you would have called him a retard as your criteria is centered in realm of pedantic normalcy typical of mediocre that have no grasp of people that live with overloaded minds.
Einstein was refused well over 100 applications for a teaching position and gawd knows what would have been his future if one of his two best friends was in a position to get in a job as a humble patent reviewer in Switzlerland.
You would have been one those of over 100 rejectors . Why did Walalce make an incterdib;le 700,000 errors that be 700 per page!His mind was far faster than his brain.
Now David Foster Wallace devasted the world of literature and thinkers that knew and loved this man through his writings and lectures hung himself , i think, the age 45.
Now you would likely scorn that event.
You could care less.

i am next to 69 and plan to check out arbitarily at 80 if a get that far of my own free will.
You would say good riddance---that is how i perceive you.
i again state i am constantly leaving these boards for my private threads because these other threads are polluted with people like you.Max
